Tomorrow we will share the "Best of" your explications. Then, you will have some time to work on revising your explication before we do a final poetry analysis as a class. For Wednesday, you are to revise your explications, focusing on improving the following:
1. Format/ requirements of explication essay
2. Theme statement
3. Paragraph-level transitions
I planned to collect notebooks tomorrow, but that's not going to work--you may want your notebooks to study poetry terms for Wednesday. So, I will collect them on Wednesday or Thursday; be prepared to turn them in either day.
On Wednesday, you will take a quiz on poetry terms (extra credit if you complete the vocab. assignment per the directions on the pink vocab. sheet). Then, you will complete an in-class explication as a final assessment for our poetry study.
Soon we will enter the literary world of Cormac McCarthy...
