Tell It Slant: The Emily Dickinson Project


Portrait of Emily Dickinson

For the next few weeks, we'll be studying the dickens out of Emily Dickinson (horrible pun intended).


There will be two summative grades related to it:
- a Dickinson box creation based on one poem (summative) 
- a timed writing exercise of the same Dickinson poem (summative)
- multiple-choice exam on an Emily Dickinson poem (formative)

We'll also be watching some of the Emily Dickinson biopic that came out last year, A Quiet Passion.




You can choose any of the poems hyperlinked in this article about Emily Dickinson. We also have a collection of her poems in H301, should you prefer to peruse a paper copy.

You should choose your poem by the end of this weekend, latest.

Here was Ms.H´s presentation.

PS: Part of this project is to make it easier for athletes in binationals. Whatever we do next week, you can complete upon your return. You will miss some amazing parts of A Quiet Passion.
