Yesterday the 8th grade literature class gave presentations about spoken word poetry. It was their final project for the unit we started during our online learning period. They analyzed the poems by looking for figurative language and sound devices. They needed to determine a theme or lesson and share it with the class. Many of the students found that they could connect with the very emotional themes of the poems. Although understanding poetry is often difficult, these students worked hard to thoroughly analyze the poems they chose. Great job! 👍👍👍 #G8 literature class #Presentation 🔸🔹🔸🔹🔸🔹🔸🔹🔸🔹🔸🔹 昨天八年級的文學課程進行了口語詩詞報告。這是學生們在線上學習課程期間的最後一項作業。他們藉由尋找出詩文中的比喻語言和聲音來分析這首詩詞，並具體訂出報告主題和全班分
