Language choices Writers choose words to get across their opinion. You need to be able to explain how the type of words they use shows their opinion. First, identify the language technique, provide an example (or two) and explain the effect of the language. Then explain what opinion they poet is trying to get across.

Learning objective Poets use provocative images to show their emotional state - On Monday we looked at Strange Fruit to show how a poet can make the audience feel. Today we want to examine a poem to see how the poet feels.

WHAT MIGHT THIS BE A METAPHOR FOR?

Burning tree by Samuel mclean In the words from a white Prime Minister, 'sorry'? You think that justice has been served? But where is my family tree the one that I deserved? I lost mine in one generation, a generation where white man's justice was often curved. We never asked for a 'sorry' in a politician's words, We asked for respect, a respect which needs to be earned. But you will never get this off me, you lost it long ago. The only time I will give you mine Is when you find my grandma's name, The name the white man burned!

Annotate Parts Message Language choices Then, in your book, explain the language choices Symbolism Connotations Questions Rhyming words

summary Why do poets choose specific words? Score your understanding
