Lesson 10th and 11th

' Oh, she doth teach the torches to burn bright!'












' It seems she hangs upon the cheek of night
Like a rich jewel in an Ethiope's ear.'











' So shows a snowy dove trooping amongst crows,
As yonder lady over her fellows show.'








Wednesday,

Mr Chua told us the meaning of what Romeo told Juliet.
It's is so romantic.

' Oh, she doth teach the torches to burn bright!'
means Juliet is brighter than any torch.

'It seems she hangs upon the cheek of night
Like a rich jewel in an Ethiope's ear.'
means that Juliet shine like diamonds in the night sky.

' So shows a snowy dove trooping amongst crows,
As yonder lady over her fellows show.'
means Juliet is compared to a dove
which are beautiful
while the other ladies in the Ball
are compared to crows.
which are ugly.

Friday,
We had 2 periods today as we had make-up lesson for it.
Today, we learn about sonnets.
We also learn couplet and alternative rhyme scheme.
And iambic, which is the way we speak using stress and unstressed.

We went to the Movers and Shakers gallery.
Mr Chua told us to do a worksheet on our founding father.
I learn alot about our founding father.
