It has been a chaotic start to the semester, with a classroom routine difficult to establish.
The focus of Unit One is language analysis in poetry. Students made cue cards of terms that will be used throughout the semester (and Grade 12). It is important that students learn these terms and be able to explain why and how they are used in texts: tone, diction, syntax, figurative language, and imagery.
We are using the acronym TP-CAASSSTT to analyze poems. For this unit, there are two summatives: Unit Test and Poetry Essay (revealing the personality of the speaker in a dramatic monologue – choice provided).
Students should be researching novels on the ISU book list and making their selection.
