Today we began our poetry unit. We started the class period by looking at poems in small groups and then coming up with a definition of poetry as a class. Next, we took notes and provided examples of the literary elements: metaphor, simile, personification, alliteration, assonance and consonance. After that, I read Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's poem "Paul Revere's Ride" aloud to the class.
At the end of class, you were given copies of this poem and assigned a literary element. Annotate these pieces for your assigned literary element for tomorrow.

-Annotate "Paul Revere's Ride"
