If We Must Die...Poetry analysis

Good Morning,

Yesterday you did some research about the life of Claude Mckay. Today I am asking you to look very closely at one of his poems.  Please use the Poetry Analysis From to enter your responses. Please remember that the usual expectations for short answer questions apply here as well.

I will be grading English Journals Tuesday and Wednesday next week. Please make sure yours is up to date and includes all the work listed on the chart in our room.

Update your status on Goodreads.

We will continue reading The Great Gatsby tomorrow. Bring your book.

Claude Mckay Quick Research

We need to take a break from Gatsby and do a quick side project.  Needs to be finished today.
  1. Work with your writing group. 
  2. Create a new document for your answers to the questions below, (share it with each other and me.) 
  3. Divide up the questions as you search out the answers.
  4. Write about what you find in complete sentences so they will make sense to the other members of your group. 
  5. You should include a citation with EACH answer. Use Easybib or Citation machine.
  6. Copy this work for yourself into your English Journal.
