my favorite poem was William Carlos Williams The Red Wheelbarrow for it's simplicity and still complex meaning.  the least favorite poem was the Richard Cory poem by Robinson i found it confusing to read and understand.  it was also close to my coy mistress in my mind.

the short story i enjoyed the most was Man with Enormous wings. by Garcia Marquez i liked how it told a story of a man who fell and was treated awful but in the end changed his life and others that were involved with him.  the least favorite was the Lottery By Shirley Jackson i found it repulsive that they do what they did just for fun and tradition.  this story reminded me about how the salam trials in the 1700's were like and i didn't like that either.

i feel that death of a salesman should stay it gives plays a good meaning that when family unity dies what will happen and that not every family is happy.

i enjoyed the films in class but i still found them confusing on how the video portrays character.  in the Bartably one they made the main character look like a mentalist or murderer.  in death of a sales man the Willy was seen as a abusive father who hits women. despite that they were good videos.

my favorite activity in class was when matched the quotes of the short stories into catagories.
i had fun organizing them and copying it to help me get a perfect on the matching portion of the test.  i feel this will help students out the most for tests in your class.
