[If mama/ could see]

I chose this poem because I thought it was challenging and had a deep message. I first chose A Red, Red Rose but decided that it was to simple. This poem is challenging to not make it seem like a murder seen. It is very hard to get across that Lucy doesn't exist but I think I MIGHT be up to the chalenge.

Tell Me how you thought I did!

Fire and Ice

I think this poem is showing the controversy of the world having different opinions. he say "some say the world will end in fire, some say in ice..." shows that there isn't one thing in the world that people can't agree on. He is trying to get the attention that it is ok to compromise. He says at the end that destruction ice would suffice. It would be great if the world could take this message and at least apply it to some things. Like the end of the world. Why do you care how it is going to end? You are going to die either way.

The Movie

A scene that really stood out to me in the movie was the court. The only difference was that I expected the room to be a little bigger, other then that it was like I had put it together. The way each characters acted was some much like the characters in the book. you could tell that the actors studied the book. Mayella did a great job at being a little different like she is. Even though the yelling would never happen in todays courts this was a different time and a different place.

The way Jem leaned on the rail seemed so perfect to me. Having Dill fall asleep withh Sykes ang Scout barly making room to take a quik snooze, perfecto. Two thumbs up to the cast on this one. Great job guys.
