This wiki was made as an easy way to present the final English project for the 2012-2013 school year. The Poetry Exploration and Analysis is a journey to deeper understand poetry, both old and new, from places around the world.
 * What is this page? **

**How is this set up?**
This project is set up in a series of stages. Obviously, we start with Step 1, and work our way up to step 10.

**What are these steps?**

 * 1) Set up the physical folder (unless in website format).
 * 2) Define 18 terms and describe how they relate to poetry.
 * 3) Select an American poet, a British poet, and any well-reputed poet from the modern-day era.
 * 4) Research style of selected poets.
 * 5) Hand-copy a sonnet, a free verse and a lyric poem //with an allusion.//
 * 6) Analyze the poems that you used in Step 5.
 * 7) Still using the three poets, hand-copy five more poems that exhibit traits from step 2.
 * 8) Analyze the poems used in Step 7.
 * 9) Select one of your poets' works and recite it to the class. NO VIDEO OR POWERPOINT. Props and costumes allowed.
 * 10) Recreate your poet's voice in a poem based on your personal narrative from earlier in the year.
