Analyzing AP Results and Beginning Romantics

Today we analyzed the multiple choice portion of your first full AP test. Ms. Gianini has finished grading the prose prompt portion of the test, and those grades have been entered. We'll do a return analysis of the prose portion on Friday. She will probably finish the poetry portion this week, which is also my goal on the free response prompt, so we'll be doing a return analysis of those portions next week.

We also reviewed what you already know about the Romantic period and poets, so there was a lot of discussion of nature, imagination, passion, change, and individuality. We read the biographical info on William Wordsworth (pg 734 in the textbook) and completed a close read and discussion of his poem London 1802 on page 710. Tomorrow we'll talk about tone, read Tintern Abbey, and your homework will be a close read of a small packet of Wordsworth's poems.
