1. Exploring Poetry Through Literary Lenses

2. Presentation Directions
You’ll be given a poem: analyze it as a group
First, annotate it, maybe TPCASTT it, & discuss it
Then, analyze it using two different critical lenses
Psychoanalytic, New Historicism, Feminism/Gender
Create a PowerPoint, Prezi, or similar type of presentation format that contains:
A slide with just the poem
1-2 slides illustrating one lens’ interpretation
1-2 slides illustrating the other lens’ analysis
Present for 5ish minutes
Each group member should play an equal role
Each group should be 2-4 people
