Here is the work for Spring Break. Please comment or email with questions.
POETRY
Select a poem from this list (or make a case for a poem of equivalent literary merit). Then select a poetry essay prompt from this list. On your course blog, explain why the prompt fits the poem (feel free to substitute the names of characters, descriptive details etc. in the prompt). Then write your essay. We will have writer's conferences the week of 4/13 as we begin Macbeth. If you want written comments, please print your essay and bring to class 4/13.
PROSE
Please read "Young Goodman Brown" and write an essay in response to this prompt. The prompt will be familiar; the acts of completing a pre-write, articulating a clear thesis statement, and presenting a well-structured analysis supported with literary techniques and illustrative examples are hopefully becoming more familiar. Same deal re: writer's conferences and written comments.
Happy reading and writing. See you in what seems like a long time but will inevitably go by way too fast. -dp
