I hope everyone is enjoying this warm weather!
Last week we began our study of poetry, looking first at rhyme patterns, sound devices, and paraphrasing to begin to examine the meaning. We practiced in class on the EnoBoard every class before students tried it on their own for homework each night.
This week we will continue poetry, looking at poetry elements such as tone, mood, imagery, figurative language, and denotation vs. connotation. We also have a quiz on roots list 38 this Friday after our roots review (contracts due) on Thursday.
