Cold Poem Analysis Trial

At this point, you all should be ready to analyze poetry on a near scholarly level. Please turn to page 293 in your Literature book. This is the beginning of the poetry unit. Find a poem that you like and complete the following analysis for it. As always, if you want some feedback on your work, just ask! :-)



You should utilize all the skills discussed for analyzing poetry and apply them. In other words you should do the following:
  1. Title Analysis
  2. Scan for unfamiliar words
  3. Read twice or more as needed
  4. Write down initial reaction
  5. Analyze poem with TPFLASSTT and 10 Point Analysis, but don't overwork yourself by duplicating tasks in the TPFLASSTT and the 10 Point Analysis
