  Jabberwocky?

  answer.

  my son.

Question 3 Structure

• What does the poem mean?
• How does the structure of the poem contribute to
  this meaning?

11
Answer Question 3

• The poem is a story about a creature called a
  jabberwock and a young man who tries to kill him.
  
• The man is successful and becomes a legend in the
  community.
• The narrative structure contributes to the
  overall meaning because the no limit on length.
  This allows for an entire story to be told and
  much more detail to be present.

  answer.

Answer Question 4

• Alliteration is also present in Stanza 1.
• A quote to support this is Did gyre and gimble
  in the wabe repeats the g sound.

14
Question 5 Form

• How would one of the two forms in Stanza 1 of
  Jabberwocky contribute to the overall meaning
  of the poem?

15
Answer Question 5

• Rhyme Scheme This form contributes to the
  overall meaning of the poem by making the reader
  interested from the beginning. I know this
  because when reading this, we are not sure what
  the poem is about. However, the rhyme scheme
  strikes interest and makes me keep reading.
• Alliteration This form contributes to the
  overall meaning of the poem by keeping the reader
  guessing of what the words mean, therefore making
  the reader continue reading.

16
Question 6 Structure

• How does the overall organization of the poem
  contribute to the overall meaning?

17
Answer Question 6

• The organization of the poem is in stanzas. This
  contributes to the overall meaning of the poem
  because the poem tells a story. Each stanza
  tells the story of the man slaying the
  jabberwocky in chronological order, or the order
  of events. I know this because the story begins
  with a fathers warning and progresses to the man
  finding the jabberwocky killing him.

18
Question 7 Form

• In Stanza 2, how does imagery contribute to the
  overall meaning of the poem?

19
Answer Question 7

• Imagery in Stanza 2 contributes to the overall
  meaning of the poem through the vivid description
  of the jabberwock that the son (man) wants to
  kill.
• A quote to support this is Beware the
  Jabberwock, my son the jaws that bite, the claws
  that catch.
• This provides detail of how vicious and awful the
  jabberwock is which shows why the man kills
  him, to save his family.

20
Question 8 Form

• Stanza 6 contains two examples of the same type
  of form.
• What form is this?
• Use evidence from the stanza to support your
  answer.

21
Answer Question 8

• Stanza 6 uses Alliteration twice in order to show
  how excited the father was that his son had slain
  the jabberwock.
• Examples
• Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
• O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!"
