I should have videotaped our galloping in the hallway today! During class, we reviewed vocabulary, which means there is a quiz in your near future. Then, we identified the iambic pentameter of Sonnet 118 and watched a video of how to better find the meter in a Shakespeare poem. Using the galloping method (the rhythm of hooves, the rhythm of heartbeats), we learned how to read and break down the phrasing and, luckily, avoided any serious injury.
During next week's class, we will have more multiple choice, two more sonnets, and pyschoanalytical criticism to lead towards the Scottish play.
Make sure you identify the iambic pentameter for Sonnet 130!
