Reflection
For this assignment, we all chose a poem to recite. Additionally, we had to include a visual element, and incorporate music in the background that reflected the mood of the poem. I learned how to recite poetry using the right tone of voice. Deciding what pictures and music to use required understanding what your particular poem was trying to convey. I found it interesting how the way you say a poem can really affect the meaning. My question is, is there a right and a wrong way to say a certain poem? i can connect this project to actors and actresses. They are given lines, and must use the right tone of voice and expressions to convey how the character is feeling. We did this as well, except instead of reading a script, we read a poem.
