Sorry that this post is late and that Thursday got skipped; I'm sure you understand.
Friday in class we finished poetry presentations, and practiced writing PSSA constructed response questions.
The questions we answered is:
According to William Wordsworth, poetry should be "the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings recollected in tranquility." Explain what this quote means, and use two poems we have read to support your claims.
Homework:
10-1: Find the two poems you are going to use in your essay. Take some notes on what you want to say. If you want to write the essay, go for it. You will have to do it anyway.
10-2: Finish your essays.
Remember: Turn the question into a thesis statement, Answer the question you are asked, and Give two examples, each with their own paragraph.
