Pre-AP
In today's class, we analyzed Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech, paying special attention to his use of figurative language and allusion. Then, we began watching the cinematic adaptation of To Kill a Mockingbird.
Homework: In class, students received a poetry packet that we will be using next week. Students are to read all of the selections from Tennyson's In Memoriam (pages 1-5 in the packet), fill in the blanks in the poem's introduction, and write a paragraph describing the author's changing viewpoint of the Divine as he struggles with his great loss. This paragraph will be due on Monday, April 16th.
