Homework for English III - March 1

Happy March!

Take the conversation that we had in class today as a kick in the butt. Rise to the new expectations that have been placed on you and meet them!

Tonight for homework you need to read the packet that I gave you. Read the following from the packet:
  • The biographical data on Wheatley
  • The letter from her master
  • "To the University of Cambridge in New England"
  • "On Being Brought from Africa to America"
  • "To S.M., a Young African Painter, on Seeing His Works"
  • "To His Excellency..." and the attached poem which starts "Celestial choir."

Read the poems, mark notes. Underline lines. Be a good reader and really pick these apart!
