Thursday

The new poem was "The Good Morrow." Students chose their poems for written commentary. The first draft is due for A-day Friday, September 26 and for B-day Monday, September 29. There will be a quiz on literary terms Monday/Tuesday, September 22/23.  Here is the list of terms you should know by then:

speaker
tone
rhetorical stance
meter
rhythm
structure
sound
imagery
diction
metaphor
simile
analogy
irony
conceit
paradox
hyperbole
personification
allegory
apostrophe
wit

These are not "terms" but still could help with your commentaries:
intellectual emotion; emotional intellect
earthly things for intellectual or spiritual ideas
argument
