Brit Lit:

Today:

We started with

 journal #23/22:  Please write a sonnet following the rules we went over.  The poem needs to ask a question(s) and use the last two lines GG as the answer.  Remember, the last two lines in the sonnet are the power chord.

I assigned Tantasqua's Favorite Poem Project 2016.

I introduced Robert Pinsky.

I gave a brief bio of Ben Jonson and Robert Herrick.  We read the poems by each in the anthology.

I showed examples from last year.  These can be seen here: https://vimeo.com/123734012

HW:  Please find a poem that you have a strong connection with.
