"Poetry Sounds"

At first, I thought rhyme was just repeating and making the words sounds but I learned that rhyme isrhyme is a repetition of similar sounds in two or more different words and is most often used in poetryand songs. An example of a poem with end rhyme is below.Whose woods these are I think I know,His house is in the village, though;He will not see me stopping hereTo watch his woods fill up with snow. Robert Frost’s “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening”: The title the poem is " Stop by Woods on a snowy Evening." The author is Robert Frost's. The rhyme scheme is A B C A.On my poetry pretest, I was below grade-level. On my posttest, I hope that I will be at grade-level.

"Imagery and Figurative Language."

At first, I thought imagery was like amagination but I learned that this was wrong. Actually, imagery is the language that appeals to the five senses. I also learned about figurative language. I used to think figurative language was bad words or not using words correctly. But I learned that figurative language is word or phase that describes an thing in terms of another and is not meant to be understood on a literal level. The three main types of figurative language are similes,metaphors and personification.
