Week 24 (02/10 – 02/14)

CONCLUDE: Unit 5: Poetry II - Students will encounter both closed and open poetic structures and will have multiple opportunities to practice recognizing structural patterns and analyzing the relationship between poetic structure and meaning. This unit is the perfect context to remind students that there is no single “correct” interpretation. Students will be given opportunities to compare their claims about an interpretation of a text to others’ claims and to evaluate whether the reasoning and evidence of another’s argument justify an alternative interpretation of the text.
