Processing MC

2: We primarily spent the hour close reading a MC passage (with an understanding that structure and lit elements are of necessary notice; however, there is also the  necessity of understanding the meaning, content, and symbolic interpretation too), previewing questions and categorizing them as factual, technical, analytical, or inferential, utilizing process of elimination to guarantee a better result, and finally voting on the best answer. Your class finished 9/10, making an error on the style of poem. To end class, you were divided into teams for Sonnets 116 &130 and started the process of analyzing the poem for its theme, literary devices, and meter. You will be back in those groups on Monday to finish up your analysis and prepare for presentation and galloping of each sonnet. If you were absent, you can have your choice between the 2 sonnets for preparatory purposes.

6: Since we notated the meter yesterday on Sonnet 18, there was only one thing left for us to do: gallop! With 420 steps through the multiple readings of the 14 lines, you have the rhythmic feel for iambic pentameter. Following our gallop, we moved into the world of MC, looking at common stems, strategies, types, and a passage. Dependent on our class time, we may have moved into sonnets 116 & 130, but we shall see when we get there.
