Poetry Presentation

            More recently, we compared poems with song lyrics in class in groups and presented them to the rest of the class.  Even though I do not really enjoy working in groups, it worked out, oddly enough, because of the absences.  The number of absences caused it to be impossible to present as a group, but it worked out in the end; the few students that were left out of the remaining groups were allowed to just present whatever they had written down.  I enjoyed this because I no longer had to worry about work distribution; I just presented my ideas on the song I chose and compared it with two poems.  I was also kind of glad that the quote “first place in a backwards marathon”, as well as my interpretation of it sparked a discussion among the class.
