Wow, it's been a while since we've done on of these! I feel a little out of practice, but I'll do my best to be coherent and whatnot. It is a Friday after all.
So, this week we started looking at two poems instead of one for the PoW essay, and I must say that I like it. Although Schoenborn mentioned that it isn't as likely that we'll see a prompt that includes two poems on the AP test, I do like that we're practicing this just in case it does come up. Along with having to look at two poems came less time to explicate them, and I liked this a lot too; this is why I liked looking at two poems. I feel this reflects the AP test more accurately because when we do the test we won't have a lot of time to explicate, not nearly as much as we had before when we only used one poem.
Anyway, I don't think I have much of anything else to reflect upon this time. I do need to mention though, that I have seen that Macbeth video before in another English class. I don't remember which one, but I do know that I have seen it.
