Homework 4/20/09

Period 1
1. Create a graphic organizer
2. Create an outline for the following prompt.

NOTE: The prompt below will be posted for a limited time only for those of you that care about your homework. The majority of the class walked out without a care about what their homework was. Therefore, in order to merit those that took the time to write it down BUT to not be entirely unfair, the prompt will be visible for approximately 4 hours. It will be coming down at 7 pm.

Prompt: Knowing what you know about Dickinson and Whitman's style, what do you think is the effect it has on the overall meaning of their poetry. Select a poem that backs up your analysis and give textual evidence (quotations not just line references).
prompt rephrased: How do stylistic devices [diction, rhyme, punctuation, mood, tone, cataloguing, listing, syntax] that each of the author's use, support or affect the overall theme or feeling of the poem?

Period 3
Read pg 208 and take notes (1/2 page).
Do the quickwrite on pg. 208
