22nd September 2014- Starter Brainstorm as many poetic techniques that you can think of and describe intended effect on reader. Metaphor: comparison between two unlike things Meter: The number of feet in a line (the beat) Alliteration: repetition of consonant sounds Assonance: repetition of vowel sounds Enjambment: the running on of lines Simile: comparison using like or as Sestet: a 6 line stanza Sibilance: repetition of ‘s’, ‘z’, soft ‘c’ sounds

Comparison Table: Light Brigade v Bayonet Poem 1: Poem 2: Introduction (focus on key words and perspective/ ideas of poet) What is the poem about? Whose perspective is the poem written from/who is the poetic voice? How does the poetic voice appear to be feeling?

Language comparison Poem 1: Poem 2: (techniques including imagery) What techniques does the poet use? Just list them at this stage, but highlight them on your annotated poem.

Form and Structure comparison Poem 1: Poem 2: (arrangement and endings) Can you identify the poem’s form? Is it a sonnet, ode, ballad, ghazal, blank verse….. Is there anything that strikes you about the way the poem looks? Consider line endings, rhyme scheme etc…

Conclusion Poem 1: Poem 2: (focus on key words and ideas/message of poem) What is the poet’s overall message? Why and for whom do you think he/she wrote it? What effect did he/she want it to have?

Turn Your Table Into Paragraphs The poems, Charge of the Light Brigade by Tennyson and Bayonet Charge by Hughes both deal with the idea of warfare in the form of a ‘charge’ on the battle field. The poetic voices in each of the poems however, are very different. Whilst Tennyson’s poem is from the point of view of a third party, removed poetic voice who looks back on the event as a moment in history, the poetic voice in Hughes’ Bayonet Charge is quite conversely, that of one of the soldiers and what he is experiencing on the battleground as it is happening.
