October 24/27
We discussed Emerson's "Nature" and Thoreau's "Civil Disobedience". Using notes from the nature walk, students wrote a found poem with passages from Emerson and their own observations of nature.
Part of the homework is to write a Transcendental poem. Remember to word process and start with a quote from one of the essays.
Read and take notes on the biographical essay on Walt Whitman. We will start reading his poetry next class!
