20 minutes: Carousell Walk:
*Walk around and view the poetry term posters. As you read, make sure you really understand each term and how the poetic device "works" within the example. You may want to take a picture of the posters because I will be using them to create your final. No posters or notes will be used during the final, so do memorize them!
