Private Peaceful - Chapter One - Tommo analysis
What were your first impressions of Tommo?
He seems a sensitive boy who feels strongly that he is solely responsible for his father's death. He has a loving family who are poor and have had their hardships; father's death, Big Joe and being beholden to the landowner the Colonel.
We spoke about:
foreshadowing - predicting things to come
omniscient narrator - all-knowing
motif - a recurring theme throughout the novel
Make sure that you understand these new terms, as we will be using them in our learning.
