STRUCTURE
This is a 20 line poem – 2 stanzas made up of 10 lines each Each line should be a complete sentence. You will need 2 typed copies of your ode - one for yourself to read from as you present, and the other for me to follow along with and grade. Both copies should be marked with the required sound devices and figurative language examples.
SOUND DEVICES Rhyme –AA, BB, CC, DD, etc couplets. Don’t force rhymes that don’t make sense or lose meaning just for the sake of rhyming. Rephrase your sentences, move words around to create rhyme. No homophones or word repetition. Rhymes must be perfect. Rhythm – try to create a musical note to your ode. Pay attention to number of syllables and line length so that your ode has a nice flow when you read it and make sure each line is a complete thought / sentence. Alliteration – one line must contain 3+ words that start with the same sound (no repetition of the same word – ie. Very, very, very)
FIGURATIVE LANGUAGE Metaphor – one line must contain a direct comparison
Your choice – either hyperbole or personification in another line
Highlight and label your examples for alliteration, metaphor and your choice (either hyperbole or personification) on both copies. All odes are due on Thursday April 23rd. These will be presented in front of the class during our Poetry Café on Thursday and Friday. This is a formal (major) grade that will not be able to be redone / made up.
Red spatula oh how I love you, Whenever I see you I never feel blue. Whenever I use you I always feel glad. As long as you're with me I'll never be sad. I got you for Christmas and you make me smile. To get you I'd walk for over a mile.You are the love of my life and I love you so much. We will always be together and never out of touch.You are my sunshine and my best friend. My love for you, spatula, will never end.
What is wrong with this ode stanza?
PRETTY MUCH EVERYTHING!!!

imagery
imagery
imagery consists of words and phrases that appeal to a reader's five senses. Writers use sensory details to help the reader imagine how things:lookfeelsmellsound taste
T - P -C - A -S -T -T -
T - Title
What will the poem be about? Make a prediction based just on the title. Go deeper - Ask: What about that topic?
P - ParaphraseWhat is the literal meaning of the poem? One of the biggest problems that students often make in poetry analysis is jumping to conclusions before understanding what is actually taking place in the poem. When you paraphrase a poem, write in your own words exactly what happens in the poem. your paraphrase should have a similar number of lines as the poem.
Paraphrase - put it in your own words. Looking at the literal meaning.
C - Connotation
Look for figurative language and sound devices, and think about how they contribute to the overall meaning in the poem. It is not necessary that you identify all the poetic devices within the poem. The ones you do identify should be seen as a way of supporting the conclusions you are going to draw about the poem.
A - Attitude (tone) (the writer's attitude toward his / her subject)
How does the author feel about the subject of the poem?
What words do they use to reveal this?
S - Shift
What is a shift? A change, or a turn
Look for the following things that may provide a clue:
• key transition words, (but, yet, however, although)• punctuation (dashes, periods, colons, ellipsis)• stanza divisions• changes in line or stanza length or both
T - Title (again)
Now look at the title again, but this time on an interpretive level.
What new insight does the title provide in understanding the poem?
What would be a good alternate title?
T - Theme
What subject or subjects does the poem address? What do you learn about the subject?What idea does the poet want you take away with you concerning this subject?
Remember that the theme of any work of literature is stated in a complete sentence. Avoid cliches and remember, themes are NOT selection specific. They are BROAD lessons about life!!!
