III. Conclusions: 1. the outline of a poem review( SBP32 Part 2.) 2. some useful expressions that can be used to write a poem review ( See the above.) Step 3: Writing 1. Get them to discuss in pairs how to write a poem review on Silent in the house. 2. Start writing the poem review individually. 3. Show the sample writing and read it through with the class if necessary. Sample writing: About Silent in the house, by Emily Bronte The poem called Silent in the house by Emily Bronte is very short and the language it used is very simple. The first four lines of the poem are an invitation to go out together and enjoy time spent together. It sounds as if it may be the last time together in the evening, enjoying the mild weather and looking at the stars. Within a year, long before it is October again, the two lovers in the poem will be parted forever. It is not easy to understand what it means that seas of blood will part them, but I think one of them will get married to someone else. Because of that, they must both stop loving each other, and each must destroy the love in their hearts. The idea that they will be separated by “ seas of blood” reminds me of Richard Marx’s song in which the lovers are “oceans apart”. The sea is a very good image to give you the feeling that two lovers cannot reach each other. To use the word “ crush” instead of “destroy” is a good choice, because crush gives you the feeling that the love in their hearts can be broken by pushing it away. Although the poem is short, it is very moving. It is a very beautiful way to express the sadness when two lovers must part because they cannot stay together. I like the poem because it is very quiet. It seems as if the poem wants to be like a beautiful memory. Homework: 1.Write a review on the poem they have chosen to recite. 2. Choose a program that has something to do with this unit, rehearse it in pairs, groups or individually, and prepare to act it on in the English Poem Festival.
