I handed out, and we reviewed, our initial rubric -- or the scale on which I will mark many of your assignments.
We looked at Buffy St.Marie's "Self Portrait" from our textbook and we discussed the importance of small details. We even managed to come up with a theme for the piece of work: that Buffy was shielding herself from the degradation that was happening to the earth.
We had a brief discussion about my Tante Miriam and how she told me I had a cucumber nose while I was in the throes of adolescence.
Finally, we worked hard on our Warren Pryor paragraph: discuss the use of imagery in the poem Warren Pryor. This assignment is due tomorrow.
