This week, we focused on the poem "Bright Star" by John Keats. At first, this poem kind of confused me, but after we went over it a few times and tried to dig below the surface, it started to make sense to me. We discussed how each of us relates to a character in the poem, the speaker, the speaker's love, or the bright star. Personally, I thought I could relate to the bright star the most because I listen to people's problems a lot. I also am always observing people whether I mean to or not. In the poem, the star does not play a big part, but rather listens and observes from the sidelines. We also got into pairs and worked on a project about literature. We picked two topics about literature and made claims about them after reading a poem. Lydia and I picked structure and point of view. After reading our poems, we wrote about the structure and point of view in the poems and made claims about them. We are going to make a presentation about what we got from the poems and our claims. This week was a little tough because of fog delays and cancellations. This is a website that explains structure in poems and helps you pick it out. http://learn.lexiconic.net/elementsofpoetry.htm xoxo, Gabby
