Shape poems are past due. Make sure that you get them into me right away. Progress reports go out tomorrow. Also, below is all the missing work from today. Please make sure you have everything in your notebook and pick up today’s worksheet from me when you return to sch0ol.
Today we took notes on the titan Prometheus, read about him, and also read a short poem by Lord Byron about Prometheus. We also completed a worksheet on the reading and learned new vocabulary words (all from Lord Byron’s poem).
There are a lot of notes. Make sure all go into your notebook, including the poem, the Objective, and the Aim.
Notes on Prometheus (put in notebook)
Lord Byron’s Poem (put in notebook)
“Titan! to whose immortal eyes
The sufferings of mortality,
Seen in their sad reality
Were not as things that gods despise;
What was they pity’s recompense?
A silent suffering, and intense;
The rock, the vulture, and the chain;
All that the proud can feel of pain;
The agony they do not show;
The suffocating sense of woe.”
-Lord Byron
