We started the poetry unit today. I introduced why poetry is important (the value of it in the past and today), and then handed out a terminology sheet (goldenrod yellow). I also defined a number of terms on the board which you had to add to your sheet. You were then broken into groups of two and given sentences to analyze and define in terms of literary language. There could be one or more than one type of literary device present. This will be worked on a bit more tomorrow.
