Lesson 11

“Chicago” (periods 1, 4, 5, and 7) What is Sandburg’s message? – While Chicago has its share of problems, it is a proud city and will work relentlessly to achieve its goals. How do you know this? What is the evidence? – Textual evidence

“Place I Love” poems Did you include EPITHETS? Did you include APOSTROPHE? Did you include SIMILE? Did you include PERSONIFICATION? – LABEL EACH OF YOUR EXAMPLES

“When I Heard the Learn’d Astronomer” -Walt Whitman & “The War Against the Trees” - Stanley Kunitz Objective: Using evidence to enhance analysis.

Watch, Listen, Respond Big Yellow Taxi As you watch the video and listen to the song, jot down words and phrases and images that are emphasized. After the video, react to your jot list. What is the message and what is your opinion?

When I Heard the Learn’d Astronomer When I heard the learn’d astronomer, When the proofs, the figures, were ranged in columns before me, When I was shown the charts and diagrams, to add, divide, and measure them, When I sitting heard the astronomer where he lectured with much applause in the lecture room, How soon unaccountable I became tired and sick, Till rising and gliding out I wander’d off by myself, In the mystical moist night-air, and from time to time, Look’d up in perfect silence at the stars.

The War Against the Trees The man who sold his lawn to standard oil Joked with his neighbors come to watch the show While the bulldozers, drunk with gasoline, Tested the virtue of the soil Under the branchy sky By overthrowing first the privet-row.

Analysis Pick your favorite poem you read today. Write down three lines that are important (evidence). Explain why they are important (analysis). Tie these reasons together into a single thought (thesis). With this, then will write a well-constructed paragraph (thesis, evidence, analysis) to turn in.

"The Lorax" How is the theme of The Lorax similar to today’s poems?
