Poetry Analysis: Because I could not stop for Death
Good morning, class!
Today's my final day with you all, so I figured what better way than to end the content portion of the unit where we began: with the light-hearted and totally-not-dreary subject of death! We will be having a guest in our class today from my teaching program to observe me, so I hope you'll give her a warm welcome. As always, I hope you enjoy and I look forward to our discussion.
Also, I do plan on having us do an assessment on the skills we've been building on Friday. It shouldn't be very long and you can consider today's assignment as a bit of a practice test.
