We're gearing up for our Poetry test!

Today, we conducted a Jeopardy! style review of poetry. This will help students to understand what they do and don't know, so they can study for the exam tomorrow.

Also, I presented some notes on "epic poetry." We will be starting a short unit on Homer's Odyssey. It's an epic poem about the great warrior Odysseus and his ten year journey to return home after the Trojan war.
