Sidney Prompt

After vocabulary today, we spent the remainder of the hour covering the Rangefinders for the Sidney Prompt. Heading to a 9 essay, writers utilized more in-depth poetry terms (apostrophe, epithet, antagonist), placed evidence throughout a paragraph and not "chunked" evidence in one quick sentence, and composed thorough analysis that connected to the relationship portion of the prompt.

On Monday, Donne is back for more --- he will share his Sonnets (structure will be play a part) and we will see how his personas differ from the Songs.

We will have 2 box prompts next week dealing with Petrarch & Donne and then more on poetry, multiple choice, and, eventually, Shakespeare.
