  4. Poll • Lose a Sense

  5. QUIZ? Announcement • Our first quiz = Monday. What to think about (study): • Why do we study English? Why is English important? • Perception (What is it?) • Aesthetics (What is it used for?) • Sound Structure - Rhyme, Rhythm, Repetition, Alliteration (be prepared to find / give examples of these terms) Be sure to read all class notes (slideshows) and the “main point(s)” documents posted on our class website: http://mhsmedialab.com/english-12

  6. Do Now: CHOOSE ONE OF THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS AND WRITE A SHORT RESPONSE (7-10 sentences) Write down a step by step list of directions to explain “how to build something” (at least 5 steps) Write down a recipe to one of your favorite meals. Draw, sketch, or map out the floor plan of a building. • Please write your FULL NAME and DATE at the top of the Do Now.

  7. Perception: Perception: The way we see the world. Perception is how we develop our ideas, beliefs, and values based on what we sense, what we learn, what we experience. Everyone has a unique perception. Illusion?

  8. Aesthetics • Aesthetics = The philosophy of the nature of beauty. How will we use aesthetics in class? To evaluate literature. Always ask: Why is this good? Why are we reading this?

  9. Sound Structure • Ingredients Writing is a skill that requires practice. (You will get better with every letter) Writing requires knowledge of a wide range of tools. Writing is building. Writing is creating.

  10. ACTIVITY: Build a Poem. Complete the “Build a Poem” handout. As writers, we build with words. As part of Unit 1, today, we are learning: How to build with rhyme. How to build with rhythm. How to build with repetition. How to build with alliteration.

  11. 2 Minute Break • Get up, stretch, relax. • Questions about the assignment due Friday?

  12. Rhyme and Rhythm • Rhyme: a pattern of words that contain similar sounds.Rhythm: The dictionary tells us it is "a movement with uniform recurrence of a beat or accent." In its crudest form rhythm has a beat with little or no meaning. • In poetry, rhythm is a recognizable pulse, or "recurrence," which gives a distinct beat to a line and also gives it a shape. • Read More Here

  13. Repetition and Alliteration • Repetition • Repetition • Repetition • Repetition: when a word, phrase, or structure (sound) is repeated several times, often in close proximity, to emphasize an idea. • Alliteration: the repetition of the initial consonant. (There should be at least two repetitions in a row) • Example: Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers. The first letter, p, is a consonant. It is repeated many times.
