interpretation .
Feedback
(Congratulations everyone. If you notice, the
way you have come up with your
interpretation from the poem given, had a
personal touch of your own interpretation.)
Discussion
A while ago I had asked you to interpret a
poem through spoken poetry . Now during
the process how did you come up with your
interpretation?
Yes Christine?
Correct!! Very good!
You all went to that level of analyzing the
poem, and in doing so, you arrived at your
own interpretation. With that being said,
this led us to our lesson of the day, which is
"Poetry Analysis." Poetry analysis is
essentially a process of investigating a
poem's form, content, and history in an
informed way, with the aim of enhancing We did brainstorm Sir, and most
one's own and others' understanding and importantly, we did tried our best
appreciation of the work. Hence there are to at least analyze the piece of
steps in doing a poetry analysis, and here poetry you had gave.
are the steps:
Step One: Read
You have to read the poem for the first
round in a silent way. By the second time
you read it out loud. Afterwards take in
account your first impression the first time
you’ve read it which was in a silent mode
and then your impression when you had
read it the second round which was by
reading it loud.You will then notice class
that after having read the piece using the
silent mode and the read aloud way , it
seems that there are certain sentences that
is meant to be read the fast way or the slow
way. That being notice you can start to
generate certain understanding as to what
the piece is about.
Step Two: Title . Think about the title and
how it relates to the poem. Titles often
provide important clues about what is at the
heart of a piece. Likewise, a title may work
ironically or in opposition to a poem.
Questions to talk about and consider are:
Does the title immediately change how you
think about it? Does the poem’s title paint a
picture that gives a specific time frame,
setting or action? Does it imply multiple
possibilities?
Step Three: Speaker. Understanding the
speaker is at the center of a poem. Having
to know the speaker may help the piece
appear more tangible to because you will
able to imagine a person behind the
language.
Step Four: Mood and Tone. After talking
about the speaker, it’s important to address
the attitude or mood the poem is
attempting to convey. Some can be
brooding or grieving; others may have a
song-like cadence and rhyme. Discuss the
attitude each speaker or characters give off.
Moreover, talk about if there places where
the poem's tone may switch and why.
Step Five: Paraphrase. Paraphrasing may
seem pretty self-explanatory. However,
keep in mind this is not about skipping lines
or condensing. Instead you should see line-
by-line and translate figurative language or
unclear phrases into simpler terms that will
not get in the way of analyzing the poem
later on.
Step Six: Theme. Last but not the least, it's
time to get to the core of what the poem is
about by identifying its theme. The theme of
a poem relates to a universal truth, issue, or
conflict. To determine the theme, look over
all of your analysis and connect the dots.
Those are the basic steps in creating a
poetry analysis.
ABSTRACTION
Now what do you think is the importance
and the significance of learning poetry
analysis?
Wow such a deep correlation you did Ms
Vanessa.
Indeed as what your classmate just said, the
relevance of learning poetry analysis
towards our day to day living is that it allows
us to free ourselves from our prejudices to
other people and instead create a profound
and thorough understanding of each
complexities, and by such what a beautiful
world we could possibly have.
IV. Generalizations
Ok class may we all be reminded of the
importance of the lesson we had today.
More so let us remind ourselves constantly
to be a little bit kinder towards our
treatment to others. Also always bear in
mind the basic steps of creating a poetry
analysis.
For me Sir, I believe that there is actually a
V. Evaluation relevance of learning how to do poetry
Now to assess if you really learn analysis in our day to day living. Take for
something in today’s lesson, I instance, we humans if not all, are so fond
will ask you to create a poetry with having so much assumptions towards
analysis of the famous poem by others, through having this background
Emily Dickinson which is entitled poetry analysis, we get to be reminded the
“After a hundred years”. Apply fundamental fact which is that all of us is
what you have learned from our going through something, and that we all
discussion and also be reminded have those complexities, therefore we
that this task is individual and must learn how to be understanding to
that at the end of it I will be everyone around us.
randomly calling names from
the class to share to us its
analysis. I’ll give you 10 minutes
to finish it.
( 10 minutes after)
Ok Mr James, Ms Jane, Mr
Raplh and Ms Kate please share
to us now the analysis you had
created.
Good job everyone; I can
confidently say that indeed you
learned something today.
Ms. Tina kindly collect all the
papers.
