- Analyze the poem, “Digging,” by Seamus Heaney
- Discuss students sound devices and diction through a video and Edgenuity. (Sound devices are elements of literature and poetry that emphasize sound. There are a few different types of sound devices including alliteration, rhyme schemes and rhythm. Alliteration is the repetition of constant sounds. Rhyme schemes are the pattern in which a poem rhymes while rhythm is the number of syllables in the lines of poetry.) Katie Aquino (video)
