Sonnet Check and Response

My opinions on the sonnets are that they are about loving someone. I honestly really don’t know what to think of them quite yet because I need to go over them little more. I’m feeling right now that they are very cute because they are about women that they want in there lives or women that have impact there lives. The sonnet that I truly like is Sonnet 169 because it’s about a guy that sees this girl but is too scared to approach her because she is surrounded by all these people that may be very critical. Plus I feel that I can relate to the poem more because I’ve been through the same thing that the authors been through. I honestly probably would not recommend this poem because I barely understand it and my family wouldn’t either but I would recommend the sonnets to the future students because if they have this class they will read it and its good to get ahead now than later. What I would tell them is that the poem is a great love poem and that most people can relate to this poem and maybe even more.

Today is April 29, 2009.My day has been semi okay. I am a little upset that there are a lot of bad things happening on this campus today and I am going through some things personal and not personal. A young man is leaving today because he doesn’t want to live here at San Pasqual Academy. But in my all or opinion the reason he is leaving is because he smokes all the time. Even though he smokes all the time but he is still a good person. I am also mad that I am not doing as good in school as I used to, I am not doing my homework that much and sometimes I wait until the day of but I do try. I am mad at the fact that I have to wait to see my father they will not let me see him if there is not supervised. Well thats all for now maybe until tomorrow.

“Response to President Obama.”

On Tuesday, President Barack Obama said the following in his State of the Nation Address to Congress:“In a global economy where the most valuable skill you can sell is your knowledge, a good education is no longer just a pathway to opportunity – it is a prerequisite. It is our responsibility as lawmakers and as educators to make this system work. But it is the responsibility of every citizen to participate in it. So tonight, I ask every American to commit to at least one year or more of higher education or career training. . . . And dropping out of high school is no longer an option. It's not just quitting on yourself, it's quitting on your country – and this country needs and values the talents of every American. These education policies will open the doors of opportunity for our children. But it is up to us to ensure they walk through them. In the end, there is no program or policy that can substitute for a parent – a mother or father who will attend those parent/teacher conferences, or help with homework after dinner, or turn off the TV, put away the video games, and read to their child. I speak to you not just as a president, but as a father when I say that responsibility for our children's education must begin at home.” -President Barack Obama, 2/24/09Well this quote is very insparattional because we do need are knowledge and it is a very valuable skill you can have in this world.We need education to get us gown to path to something good in this world not just getting thru highschool and then we will be at Mc Danolds flipping burgers a taking french fries out of an greaser for the rest of our life. When hew says an good education is no longer just a pathway to opportunity it is a prerequisite that meanse that an education just is not going to help you you have to look for it out of the text book you have to know knowledge that is not in a book.

"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.

The best figurative language game I played tonight is because it was so fun. In order to play this game, I had to think. My final score on this game was 100 percent. If you want to play this game, go to this link [http://www.kidsonthenet.org.uk/dragonsville/metaphor1.htm]. (___/6)

irony and ambiguty

At first, I thought irony wasan iron but I learned that this was wrong. Actually, irony is the difference between what the readers expect or what seems suitable and the reality of what happens. There are three types of irony is verbal irony, dramatic irony, situtational irony.

I also learned about ambiguity. I used to think ambiguity was that that was just aword that describe someone but I learned that ambiguity isa part of a text with multiple meanings in which something can be interpreted in a number of different ways

On my irony and ambiguity pretest, I was not present at the time so I didn’t take the test On my posttest, I hope that I will be grade-level.
