Contemporary Galloping

2 & 4: After over-analyzing sonnets 116 &130, we spent the rest of the time galloping, and in creative fashions, forward and backward, horse stance and forward kicks, famous dance moves, just about anything imaginable! For Monday's class, you have a new box prompt for Sonnet 138 (the last poem in your packet and can be found online in multiple places):  In regards to Sonnet 138, how does Shakespeare use poetic elements to reflect the overall theme of the poem?And, if you don't have the handout, you can create boxes of your own on notebook paper! Also for Monday, do research on birth order and dream symbolism for our foray into psychoanalysis.

7: We are a tad behind the other classes, but we are galloping, so we've have nothing to complain about! After finishing our Sonnet 18 gallop, we tried our hand at our first MC passage, starting with close reading and moving into identifying question types and answering the questions. For next class - whatever day that might be - you will need sonnets 116 & 130 close read and over-analyzed. And yes, more galloping will occur! And, congrats for your perfect score on the first MC passage - the only AP Lit class to do so!
