November 24, 2008 -- November 26, 2008

Monday

Compare and contrast a modern anonymous poem with Shakespeare's Sonnet 130. Complete the activities assigned for Sonnet 130 and bring them to class tomorrow for a discussion.

Tuesday

Take notes on the following poetic terms:
Sonnet
Couplet
Rhyme Scheme
Meter
Iamb
Iambic Pentameter
Then we will have a class discussion about Sonnet 130.

Wednesday

After a kinesthetic activity in which we distinguish stressed and unstressed syllables in iambs, we will use accent marks / and breves ⌣ to show iambs in sonnets.
