In this poem, the speaker is proud of where he’s from and wants to distinguish it from other places. “How do these side-by-side images help me to see the speaker’s topic in a different way?”

  17. 1 Re-read and stop when you notice two or more different images. 2 Ask yourself: “How are these images similar? How are they different?” 3 Make a Venn diagram with the details that make the images similar and different.

  18. In this lesson you have learned how to compare and contrast textual detailsby using a Venn diagram.

  19. Find the two different images in stanza two of the poem “Daffodils” below. Continuous as the stars that shine- And twinkle on the Milky Way, They stretch'd in never-ending line Along the margin of a bay: Ten thousand saw I at a glance, Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.

  20. Highlight the similarities and differences, then write the details in a Venn diagram. Differences Differences Similarities

  21. Compare and contrast the following images/places/events using a Venn diagram: • Your 1st birthday and your 10th birthday • Your house and your best friend’s house • Your favorite flower and a different flower

  22. Write an additional 2-4 stanzas for “D.C.” in which the speaker talks about similarities between D.C. and other cities. How does the addition of these new stanzas impact the meaning of the poem?
