Thursday, April 26th

Pre-AP
In today's class we finally finished our poetry notes, surveying American transcendentalism, modernism, and post-modernism, with poets such as Whitman, Auden, and Frost.  We also began a segue into post-modernism in full, which we will focus on for the rest of the semester as we read Golding's Lord of the Flies.

Homework:  Students need to finish reading and review chapters 1-3 in Lord of the Flies and be ready to take a reading quiz on the work tomorrow.  They also need to review and ensure their understanding of the TAP-CASTT model in preparation for their poetry analysis test on Monday.

AHSGE Reading Review
We continued our study of poetry and poetic forms in class today.
