Revision

Did you do your homework? Let's discuss what we did.

• Character description
• A recurring sentence and the meaning behind it.

What did you think about the first three chapters?

Characterization of the children.

Peter: being the oldest, feels inherently accountable for his siblings. He is brave and has a moral obligation to defend his siblings.

Susan: The family's sweetest member and second-oldest, Susan is kind, lovely, sensible, and level-headed.

Edmund: The third-oldest. He becomes a traitor to the white witch, betraying his siblings as a result of his greed. He is spiteful and needs to prove himself as right in front of his siblings.

Lucy: The story's main protagonist, Lucy, is the youngest and the first to enter Narnia. She is a daring, upbeat, and devoted friend who embodies curiosity and innocence.

Recurring sentences.

‘’Leaving the wardrobe door open, because it’s a very foolish thing to shut oneself into any wardrobe.’’

Lucy leaves the door open or ajar to show her intelligence. However, Edmund closes the door, showing his impulsiveness and recklessness.

C.S. Lewis tries to get a point across to the audience so that children won't lock themselves in wardrobes.

Recurring sentences.

‘’It’s always winter and never Christmas.’’

Narnia's condition under the White Witch symbolizes a state of perpetual darkness and hopelessness without the hope, joy, or redemption that Christmas represents.

Grammar

Time - Tense - Form

1. Time = used to refer to a period in the past, present, or the future (Yesterday, at six o’clock, etc.)

2. Tense = A grammatical way that indicates the time of an action (present, past, or future)

3. Form = The way in which the tense is represented (simple or continuous)

For example

''This is going to be perfectly splendid.''

• Time: future; is going to be. 
• Tense: present; is.
• Form: Simple; is.

It expresses a prediction or certainty about what will happen.

It's formed by "Subject + am/is/are + going to + be . 

''I am very pleased to meet you, Mr Tumnus.''

'' I'm crying because I'm such a bad Faun.''

Find 3 sentences.

Find three sentences in the chapters you've read and dissect them into time, tense, and form.
