Monday and Tuesday 5-2 and 5-3

NOTE...MASS IS THURSDAY THIS WEEK and NEXT

Monday some papers were passed back in Blocks 4-5-6, Tuesday the remaining papers will be passed back in Blocks 3-4-5-6.

We discussed Sonnet 55 and 130 :
  • Rhyme Scheme...did it fit Elizabethan Sonnet formula?
  • Connotation of words
  • Paraphrase
  • Then...analysis by Quatrain and Couplet...theme...SHIFTS per section
  • THEN looked at alliteration and assonance...searched for examples...Asked how they reinforced connotation of words as well as enhanced meaning/drove home author's point.
  • Discussed figurative language...and connotation
    • parallels in beauty's brow

Connected Frankenstein - judging people by LOOKS with Sonnet 130



Tuesday: Finish Sonnets...delve into Frankenstein on Block Day
