Loving the Discussions

I have to admit I was a bit apprehensive about having Ms. Stariha back because I heard that she is a lot tougher than what our 2nd Tri class was used to. However, I feel that I understand "To The Virgins" and "His Coy Mistress" a lot better than any of the poems/sonnets we read in part A. I also (yes this is a bit embarrassing to admit) truly enjoyed Friday's discussion! I'm actually looking forward to the rest of this class! (minus the Weathering Heights bit- I tried to read that once and it ended up with me giving up after spending a week trying to get through the first chapter)

P.S. If anyone out there feels like getting some culture this weekend Hart High School is performing Cinderella at 7pm tonight! I heard it's supposed to be really good.

  2. I completely agree. I think that its a lot easier to get your thoughts out too. Like the classroom as whole is more personable. That could just be me.

  3. I'm also really happy that Ms. Stariha is back. I understand her teaching and lectures a lot better than Ms. K's. Ms. K was good, don't get me wrong, but I just feel like I learn more from Ms. Stariha.

  4. I agree Em. I feel like the class is a lot more personable and it's easier to share your opinion. And yes, Kaitlyn I think I'm going to learn a lot more this tri!

  6. Well the new poems should be easier to understand they're a whole century closer to modern English!

    P.S. Weathering Heights??? Isn't it Wuthering Heights?
