Good morning!
This week we will begin our very fun journey into Sensory Language and Poetry!
Vocabulary words will all be words that appeal to the five sense: sight, touch, taste, smell, and sound. We will practice using these words to be more descriptive when we explain things to others.
Students will have homework over sensory language vocabulary due on Wednesday.
Our focus on poetry this week will be on the ways that poets use sensory and figurative language in poetry to paint a picture in the reader's mind.
Tomorrow we will be going over the different types of figurative language that the students need to be familiar with.
This week will be spent mostly introducing figurative language, sensory words, and poetry.
We will continue with poetry and move into drama over the next two weeks. We will have a third six weeks test that will focus predominantly on poetry and drama before we release for the Christmas break.
Thank you for all you do and I hope your Thanksgiving holiday was blessed!
