I began the class by going over the comprehension questions from The Silver Swan and
The Rock Pile. I then gave notes on William Wordsworth and we studied his poem titled To Sleep. Students spent the remainder of the time working on their comprehension questions as well as their Type #2 Poem. Great class guys.
