Another chance for the test

          Today we finished out presentations from yesterday and also we got another chance to change or grades for our test. We got in groups of two and we put our minds together to make sure we chose the right answers on the test so if we made a bad grade we could get it changed.

Group presentations

                   Today in class we were put into group to analyze different poems. We had to summarize the poem, find the structure, the theme, and the literary device. It was a little difficult due to use have 20 minutes at first because before we could do anything we had to understand what the poem was trying to portray. We had 20 minutes to explain everything and ask and get asked questions while presenting.

The poem “I felt a funeral in my brain”

                      If you are wondering what my title means this poem is by Emily Dicksinson. Today in class we got a better understanding of the poem. It is about a person who basically has depression and is trying to fight it but, it feels as if she is losing her sanity and she is losing the battle. This person feels as it over comes them and it becomes unbearable leaving  them feeling alienated with the silence. Silence and them are just there in space looking upon everybody who seems the same. That’s is what we did today in AP literature.
