This week students will be writing Poetry Analysis Paragraphs. You can take a look at the assignment by clicking HERE. (Note: Some of the formatting gets a little messed up with the transfer to the website, but you can still get the general idea.)
We'll also be reviewing the key vocabulary terms we've been studying over the first few weeks of the school year. The list of key vocabulary words can be found HERE, along with some of the review activities. The first quiz--on the vocabulary words--will take place on Friday.
Looking ahead, on Friday, September 20th, we'll have our first field trip of the year. I'm excited for the opportunity to attend a performance of "Notes From the Balcony: Romeo and Juliet in Music" by the Boston Brass quintet and the Enso String Quartet. The concert will take place in the JDHS auditorium, and students will bring home permission slips this week. You can learn more about the performers here and here. I'm looking forward to this opportunity for students, a great connection between music and literature!
