Objective: The students will write an intro and one body paragraph.
1. Get out your analyzed poem.
2. On the back, write two paragraphs for the following prompt:
In the poem “The Weight of Sweetness” by Li-Young Lee, the speaker reflects on the complex, lingering nature of memory and its connection to his father. Read the poem carefully. Then, in a well-written essay, analyze how Lee uses literary elements—such as imagery, metaphor, and tone—to convey the intricate relationship between sweetness, memory, and loss.
3. Your body paragraph should have an equal amount of textual evidence and analysis. Follow my formula: TS, Fact, Quote, Analysis, Analysis, Fact, Quote, Analysis, Analysis.
4. Discuss poem analysis and what you wrote about.
