  1. AP English Daily Agendas

  2. Wednesday, September 3 • Professor Quiz • Literary Terms Group Challenge • Color Code Literary Terms list HW: Have materials ready for Thursday (we will organize notebooks and binders)

  3. Thursday, September 4 • Wrap up with Group Challenge • What does it say, how does it say it, what does it mean, why does it matter? • Color Code Literary Terms List • Organize Notebooks/Binders • AP Multiple Choice Passages: poetry and prose • Do passage • Discuss roadblocks, strategies, and needs

  4. Friday, September 5 • Finish discussion of AP MC • Return quizzes and discuss questions that came up • In groups: read “Underside” What does it say? How does it say it? What does it mean? So what? HW: One page essay (approximately 250 words): “Discuss a book that has made a lasting impression on your life”

  5. Questions from Professor • How can violence be symbolic of something? (Out, Out, and Beloved) • Are we going to have a chance to read novels that demonstrate some of what the book taught? • Is the Bible really used in other novels? • Why, when snow is just a it colder than rain, can one create and the other destroy? • What does it actually mean for a sonnet to be square shaped?

  6. Questions Continued • Do you ever think about the root of all literature? • Did the author over analyze some of the ideas he wrote?  (some of his ideas seem bizarre) • Why do things like rains have so many double meanings?  In other words, rain signifies both illness and fertility.    • How many books that are alluded to in "Professor" have you read? • Since Foster talks about missing details when you don't know about the background, I wondered if there was anything inexperienced readers in genres discussed might be missing in his analysis.

  7. Sonnet Shape My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun;Coral is far more red, than her lips red:If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun;If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head.I have seen roses damasked, red and white,But no such roses see I in her cheeks;And in some perfumes is there more delightThan in the breath that from my mistress reeks.I love to hear her speak, yet well I knowThat music hath a far more pleasing sound:I grant I never saw a goddess go, My mistress, when she walks, treads on the ground:And yet by heaven, I think my love as rare,As any she belied with false compare.

  8. Monday, September 8 • Vocabulary: mottled, tapestry, ambivalence, ambiguous, solidarity • Discussion: “Underside” • Questions for “Underside” HW: Read “How to Mark a Book” and talk to the text.

  9. ambivalent “ambivalence regarding her work as a waitress” • Having inconclusive feelings about something or someone • Adj. • Ambivalence = noun

  10. ambiguity An added bonus here is the lack of ambiguity in fairy tales. Uncertainty Noun Ambiguous = adj.

  11. tapestry I imagine the underside of the English language, a garbaged, mottled dream-tangle like the reverse side of a tapestry where each thread runs wild in a course of its own . . . . A woven fabric Noun

  12. sagacity • It doesn’t take any great sagacity to know that Ezra Pound’s “Sestina: Altaforte” (1909) is actually a sestina, but I for one am very grateful that he labels it as to form. Wisdom Noun Sagacious = adjective

  13. mottled I imagine the underside of the English language, a garbaged, mottled dream-tangle like the reverse side of a tapestry where each thread runs wild in a course of its own . . . . Splotted or blotched in coloring Adj.

  17. Diction Depends on Occasion: • Formal - "I am not sanquine about the decision of the board." • Informal - "I am not pleased with the board's decision." • Conversational - "I'm not comfortable about the decision.” • Colloquial - "I'm not cool with what the brass decided." • Slang-y-- "I'm ticked off at what the suits did." • Vulgar -- "I'm royally pissed."
