January 19th

I have had to leave early for my sick kid.

1. Read over the Formalism "How to Do" link on right side margin. Take good notes! 
2. Look over the Formalism Handout- keep it open to help with literary terms and devices. 
3. Read through the two Baldwin poems. Perform a Formalism read of both poems. Remember to annotate thoroughly using the literary device questions PLUS the literary devices on the Formalism handout. You will use these two texts, also, for your Socratic Seminar.
Here is an electronic copy if needed: Baldwin Poems
4. Remember to make your literary/poetry terms flash cards! You have a test NEXT FRIDAY! 

5. We will postpone the Socratic Seminar until MONDAY.  Use your time today to review "Sonny's Blues" PLUS the "Light and Dark" essay thoroughly for your discussion.  Have your notes full of ideas and questions to discuss. The seminar will be for a grade.
