English 12, Sunday, 22 May

On Thursday, we finished our review of figurative language.  We had a chance to see if we could lable the 40 definitions from memory.  I think most of you are already at 70 - 80% accuracy.  The proof is in the puddin' though, and we've got to get practiced at identifying them in actual examples of literature.  I'm away Wed - Fri next week, so I'll prep you for a narrative poem activity that you'll be able to complete independently while under the guard of the TOC.  I'm also going to give you a practice poetry section from a past provincial to use as a barometer of your current competency in poetry.  Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
