Today half the class was filled up with the Post Secondary Visits.
Then we watched the short video A Chairy Tale. Afterward we discussed the attitude of the man in the video and how it changed several times. We focused on using effective words to describe his attitude : persistent, motivated frustrated arrogant considerate empathetic frantic confused.
Then we switched to last day's poem Elegy for the Afternoon by Rhea Tregebov.
Assignment:
In a paragraph or two, contrast the attitude of the speaker of the poem with one other character in the poem. Refer specifically to the poem.
The assignment from last day was to write a similar poem to "Having a Relationship With You" where an extended metaphor is used to describe a romantic relationship, is ongoing (i.e. We'll be working on that in future classes).
