Thursday

Read this poem together as a class. Discuss -- how well does this poem describe and predict the historical and cultural changes of World Wars I and II?

Next, go to the library, accompanied by your teacher, and do preliminary research with Dr. Weaks' help on William Butler Yeats, Andrew Marvell, John Keats, and Sylvia Plath. Familiarize yourself with each of these poets and learn a little about their lives and times. Rank them 1-4 in order of preference if your choice were to commit you to a massive project on the one you ranked highest.

Because it will.

If you have yet to do your commentary, focus on preparations for that.
