WELCOME!

Hello Seniors!

This is now the course website for AP Literature at Eastside. On this site you can find links to course syllabi, assignments, and even other students' blogs. That's right! Each senior will be creating his/her own blog to create a digital community of poetry scholars. On your blog, you will post information about famous poems, interesting poems, analysis of poetic language, and even your own poems.

It will be challenging and interesting as you will all contribute to the ongoing discourse about poetry and poetic language.

Good effort and good luck!

"We Real Cool" by Gwendolyn Brooks

We Real Cool
by Gwendolyn Brooks

THE POOL PLAYERS.
SEVEN AT THE GOLDEN SHOVEL.

We real cool. We
Left school. We

Lurk late. We
Strike straight. We

Sing sin. We
Thin gin. We

Jazz June. We
Die soon.
