English Class
“Men at some time are masters of their fates: The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, but in ourselves, that we are underlings”.
–William Shakespeare
The most valuable part of English this year… was that we learned about the stuctures of poetry, and how sonnets and epics work. We learned about the writer John Milton and his epic of Paradise Lost, and we copied poems from writers such as Maya Angelou and Shakespeare.
The most memoriable thing in English this year… was our opera trip to see Madame Butterfly. I not only had a great time with my friends, but we had a wonderful experience of watching opera singers sang in Italian, which also gave us some language experience.
The lesson that made me think was… the poetry lessons, where we wrote our own poems, such as those preformed in the Poetry Smash.

. Very original and organized. I’m surprised you haven’t put any pictures of your drawings on here. You should! But still, it’s great.
