Click on one of the
links below from Spoon River
Anthology or choose your own from the site.
Copy and paste the poem and explain
who this person is and what happened in his/her life.
Additionally find any figurative language and identify it.
You may write your explanation out right next to the line or lines you
are explaining. Make sure you
include what you think his/her life was like (hard, lonely, happy) and why you
think that.
When
you are finished, write your own epitaph/obituary/tombstone poem about any
famous or infamous person. Type it
on the same page. It must be at
least 12 lines long. Remember that
you are writing it from the person’s point of view. Finish
for homework if necessary by saving it in Gaggle.
Due Wednesday.
