Poetic Devices Review

Last class, Miss Innes presented a powerpoint slide show which detailed the definition and gave an example for many poetic devices.  Her intent with this slide show was to clarify these terms for students who were still feeling unsure about these devices. 

Then, students worked in small groups, to pick out and explain devices in the poem "Ex-Basketball Player" by John Updike.  Groups presented their findings to the class, and next class, Miss Innes will check each student's understanding of these devices to ensure comprehension.
