1. Improve on quickly and accurately identifying the speaker and point of view of the poem.
2. Be able to take note of poetic devices, such as alliteration and imagery.
3. Become more familiar with several different types of poems.
4. Be able to quickly identify what the poet is trying to convey
5. Improve on recognizing the tone of the poem.
As I read through the Peterson's AP Literature book, I realized that I am aware of poetic devices, but often times don't look for them unless asked to do so. In order to fully enjoy poetry, I think it would be essential to make a habit out of identifying them. I also realized from looking over the Diagnostics test that I haven't read many different types of poems. I feel a bit close minded because I haven't even read certain types of poems.
Good goals!
