For Tuesday, January 21

Task #1

Suggested Time-40 minutes

Carefully read Mary Oliver's "The Black Walnut Tree".  Then write a well-organized essay in which you analyze how Oliver conveys the RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE TREE AND FAMILY through the use of figurative language and other poetic techniques.

If you do not finish in 40 minutes, I encourage you to mark your sport and continue writing.  The practice is always good.
