Esmes' Book Blog Week 5 12/10/10 12/13/10

Generation Dead by Daniel Waters

Week 5 12/6/10 – 12/10/10

As we are reading poetry and looking at various parts of poems, can you notice some of the same figurative language in your independent reading? Using your notes from this week, give examples of each of the parts of figurative language we've been discussing. You may not find all types. If you can’t find any, look at the poem you put on the moodle or the lyrics to your favorite song. The chart attachment is at the bottom of this page 'Week 5 Blog', use it to set up your blog. Turn in a "Process Your Process" chart to show us how you tackled this blog. This is also at the bottom of this page.

  1. Esme,

    Again, this is really hard to read. I like how you supported your thinking and you did a good job of processing your process on your blog. It would have been nice to see what book you were pulling your examples from.

    Grade: 6 PP You showed a sufficient amount of understanding of the assignment and expectations and were aware of the choices that you made in your work. The assignment reflected imagination and worldly awareness as well as some literary terms and features with intention and understanding.
