Let's do couplets, shall we?

English 11

Read the short story about Leonard Mead,
Your textbook and ten minutes is all you'll need.
Then questions below will need to be completed,
and with five more minutes to journal, you'll have succeeded.


The Pedestrian Questions
1. What function does the setting serve?
2. What important information is conveyed by the setting.
3. What aspects of the conflict are introduced in the setting?
4. What mood or atmosphere does the setting create?
5. Write down your favorite metaphor or simile. 

Inspired by Ray Bradbury's Short Story:

I'm going for an evening stroll today
to keep Ray Bradbury's 2053 at bay.
I will fight against the beckoning Screen!
If you succumb, I'm not trying to demean
you. Or any other person who feels the pull.
Technology, over our eyes, drops the wool.
Many of us love the hygge of that fleece,
But I'll be the leader in that V-flock of geese.
Take a walk, take a jog, take a spin, take a stand!
Decide for yourself, where's your line in the sand?


English 10

Julius Caesar has some serious frenemies,
Deaths and Daggers will be in their destinies. 
Act One is over and we're about to review,
Heads up, that means there'll be a quiz or two.
But for tonight complete the sheet on how Romans numbered
And complete those Snippets. Make them snazzy, ya heard?
