Feet

Today's class introduced us to the types of metrical feet used in poetry: iamb, trochee, spondee, anapest, and dactyl. Over the course of our introductory handout, you analyzed words for syllables and stressed/unstressed combinations.

For tomorrow's class, we will share your creative sentences mixing up the feet. Then, we will have a packet of poetry styles to learn and utilize during our upcoming multiple choice passages.
