Friday we had a Pep rally so I wasn’t able to attend English this Friday .. in the meantime my weekend was great even though I worked both days . I hope everyone had a great weekend as well .

Sonnet 29

today we went over the poem sonnet 29 which was about a man doubting himself. He wanted to be like everyone else’s and have what everyone else had . The speaker also felt as if god didn’t love or care about him

My heart is not complete without you here

My heart is not complete without you here
I’m not myself when you are not around
I feel all alone without you being near
My heart is weak I start to feel down
I start to feel sad and start to shed tears
I feel like a child left in water to drown
Listening to songs with headphones in my ear
From sad to happy but I always have a frown
Voices in my head talking is all I hear
I’m not myself just wish you could be around
Praying nonestop just wishing they would disappear
Without you here my heart will not be found
So long my love far gone my soul apart .
I hold myself no one to fix my heart

William Shakespeare lesson

Today in class we learned how to make up our own sonnet poems , a sonnet includes a lot of things such ass rhyme scheme, syllable count , and also stressed and unstressed words. Me and my fellow classmates figured it’s actually kind of difficult to come up with your own

William Shakespeare

While discussing the William Shakespeare poems Mr. Rease helps us find the deeper meaning of the poems . Yesterday the meaning of the poem was no matter how old or new something is of you love it it will always seem beautiful to you . With that meaning it never gets old to you .

Weekend blog

Friday in English literature and composition we took a test dealing with analyzing poems . I feel like I did better than last time due to the fact I practiced more on poems and analyzing them hands on .

Test grades

in class today we were able to go back and redo our test, but this time we had a partner. When I work with another student I tend to think better and also working with an partner helps by both of you putting your thoughts and ideas together. My test grade improved a lot due to working with an partner on the assignment

Deeper meaning of poems

In class today we got in groups and analyzed an specific poem that was assigned to us . In our group we had to find the meaning of the poem , paraphrase each line and find out characterization, structure, etc... this helps me as a student understand and grasp the concept better

Analyzing poems

Today in class I learned how to analyze the title of a poem to get an idea of what it may be about. By breaking it down it helps me as an individual understand poems alot better , taking every word out of  the tile and listing words that breaks down and gives a clear meaning of each word makes it much better to understand

My name is Tytiana Campbell and I have many strengths And also weaknesses when reading , prose , or poetry. One of my weaknesses in reading is comprehending the text , but I have gotten a lot better by using the strategies I’ve learned in my 11th grade language class such as underlining things I might find  important in the text ,  circling words I may not understand etc... . My strength in reading is managing my time and making sure I have enough  time to answer questions if required to do so . My weaknesses with poetry is trying to understand the actual meaning of the poem . I try improving my poetry skills by reading more poetry and to see if I can grasp the information and to find the meaning of the poetry the poet writes & also using context clues That is found in poetry . Reading is something I do when I need to just relax and calm my mind .i have a difficult time reading in noisy places it has to be very quiet in order for me to understand what i am reading. I don’t read as much but I am willing and going to start reading more and expanding my vocabulary
