Visible Thinking Strategy: VTSDiscussion Question: What’s going on in this poem?
Pioneers! O pioneers! Walt Whitman Come my tan-faced children, Follow well in order, get your weapons ready, Have you your pistols? have you your sharp-edged axes? Pioneers! O pioneers!
On the note card, write at least 3 words Words that mean something: to YOU!
For we cannot tarry here, We must march my darlings, we must bear the brunt of danger, We the youthful sinewy races, all the rest on us depend, Pioneers! O pioneers!
O you youths, Western youths, So impatient, full of action, full of manly pride and friendship, Plain I see you Western youths, see you tramping with the foremost, Pioneers! O pioneers!
Listen with an open mind, write at least 3 words Words that mean something: to YOU!
On your note card please tell me: What IS a PIONEER?
Pioneers! O pioneers! Come my tan-faced children, Follow well in order, get your weapons ready, Have you your pistols? have you your sharp-edged axes? Pioneers! O pioneers!
For we cannot tarry (remain) here, We must march my darlings, we must bear (accept) the brunt (impact) of danger, We the youthful sinewy (strong) races (people), all the rest on us depend, Pioneers! O pioneers!
O you youths, Western youths, So impatient, full of action, full of manly pride and friendship, Plain I see you Western youths, see you tramping (walking/hiking/running)with the foremost (leader), Pioneers! O pioneers!
What are they going TO? WHY are they going? What are they leaving behind?
We debouch (emerge/ come to) upon a newer mightier world, varied (diverse) world, Fresh and strong the world we seize (grab), Pioneers! O pioneers!
Who is Walt Whitman? • Be judgmental: • What do you think about him based on his poem? • What do you know about: • HOW he writes • WHAT he writes • What he THINKS of people?
