Flies, damn flies and ballistics
We will turn our attention to the second poem for study by looking at Gabriell Bryden's poem about the bane of most Australians - flies. To begin with you will attempt to deconstruct the poem on your own as revision of our last guided poem, 'Then and Now'. Then you will be in groups to specifically concentrate on varying elements of the poem that you will eventually share with the rest of the class.
See 'How to look at a poem' below or refer to your copy in your book.
Next we will annotate the poem before transferring your notes to the summary table.
Homework: On Tuesday you borrowed the short story booklet, Ten Out of Ten. This week you are to read the story, 'Going for Kebabs' and then create a character profile for the characters of Carmina and the narrator on your Weebly.
