Students then apply analysis to their particular chosen sonnet . The sonnet's expression of feeling should be analyzed in terms of the structure. The traditional form of the Italian sonnet of octave-sestet can be seen in many of the Shakespeare sonnets. The answer to the poem in the rhyming couplet can be explored. In light of diction or word choice, discuss meaning of the poem.
Students present to class their analysis of their sonnet with the help of their slide show.
Students will use scanners, ClarisWorks library, and ClarisWorks paint to develop graphics to incorporate pictures that reveal imagery and tone of the sonnets. Students should use consistent and readable font. They can choose their own background and borders for their slide show. Teachers will present the sonnet form to students and review the analytical concepts. They demonstrate how to do a slide show.
