Hello again!
Today has to have been my favorite since the start of the EXL experience so far! Mrs Taylor and I were able to take time to go over the materials to be introduced and the assignments that are to be given, and then she turned the teaching over to me for 'our' two classes! I was able to introduce the students to Sonnets, explained the three styles and differences (Italian, English, and Shakespearean), go over rhyme schemes, and assign the class work. The students were each to write an original sonnet, and they could use any of the three forms or create their own rhyme scheme. The amount of talent these young people display is remarkable! I will be posting a number of these from each class soon so that you may read and judge them for yourself.
