Commonly Confused Words Notes.
We analyzed the poems "When I Was a Little girl", "My Guilt", and "The Earthling". We looked at examples of literary devices within the poems, the settings of the poems, and the themes. Students also answered questions corresponding to the poems.
We continued exercising our knowledge of figurative language by watching the videos demonstrating literary devices in pop music lyrics.
Finally, I introduced the Poetry Booklet Assignment. You have to compose three poems (Acrostic, Limerick and Free Verse) and display them in a booklet with a cover and several images. We will continue working on this for the next few days.
