Classwork: Consider what it must be like to live in this environment when this
has the potential to become this:
Read the poem with these images in mind. What is the poet saying?
Look closely at the types of figurative language the poet uses? Are they frightening, beautiful, etc. How do they help to set the mood, setting,  or illuminate what life must be like living in this village?
The big question is: How does the poet's use of figurative  language  help you to understand the theme of this poem?
Read the multiple choice questions and mark them.
Re-read the poem and mark the text!
Now answer the questions.
Homework: Last Saturday PSSA prep tomorrow! Enjoy the weekend and come in Monday ready to show the PSSA folks just how great you are!
