Figurative Language

Goal: Analyze "Still I Rise" for imagery and figurative language

Agenda: 
Journal
Google Classroom Questions
Figurative Language Review
Group Work

1. Journal 
What is your favorite quality about yourself? Give yourself the props you deserve.

2. Google Classroom Questions 
We need to answer the "Navigating the Waters" questions posted in Google Classroom. This is our first priority today.

2. Figurative Language Review (as a CLASS)
  • Here is a HELPFUL GUIDE TO FIGURATIVE LANGUAGE. 
  • We need to discuss some important terms and define them before moving on today. 
  • We will make a guide together on the board that I will post here later.

3. Figurative Language Analysis (as a GROUP)
  • Each group will be assigned a stanza of Angelou's poem to analyze.
  • Your mission is to create a presentation with the following information: 
  • There is a SLIDE TEMPLATE HERE that you can use to complete the project. 
  • One person from your table must click on that link and click "use template" in the top right corner.
  • Share the slides with me (cdaniel@sandi.net) and all of your table group members. 
  • Be ready to present this project to the class. 
Reminders: 
Enjoy your afternoon! Happy early day :)
