Figurative Language, Imagery, and Sound in Poetry

Monday 21 May 2018 for Periods 1, 2, 5 & 6 and Tuesday 22 May 2018 for Period 7

Students continued to study elements of poetry by reading and analyzing Alfred, Lord Tennyson's "The Eagle" and William Wordsworth's "I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud."

In the process of the discussion, Mr. Stone defined internal rhyme, end rhyme, rhyme scheme, alliteration, assonance, personification, simile and metaphor.

Homework:  Study the four Quizlet sets Mr. Stone has added to the class account on poetry:  Poetry--Stanzas, Poetry--Types of Imagery, Poetry--Meter, Poetry--Misc Terms.

Spend at least twenty minutes studying these sets.  Will pick up on taking more notes for the poetry report tomorrow.
