Today in class I analyzed two poems Emily Dickinson. Next we read the poem twice. Once just to get a feel. The second to try and break the poem down. While reading we identified rhetorical devices, we saw personification, and similes. We also defined any words we weren’t familiar with.We found deeper meanings to key phrases. We summarized the poems and found the theme of the poems. Lastly, we made claims based on the poems and supported it with evidence from the poems.
Today was a gloomy day. On gloomy days I tend to drag throughout the day. Multiple times I was tempted to fall asleep. Once getting to your 4th period and seeing the poetry for us to analyze I immediately got discouraged as it isn’t my strong suit. Eventually I gave in to the temptations. I may have missed important information but i’m confident I got the bulk of the lesson. I’m hoping for a more upbeat lesson tomorrow.
