Vocabulary:

Prosody:
1. the science or study of poetic meters and versification
2. a particular or distinctive system of metrics and versification

Examined Chaucer's prosody for The Pardoner's Tale. and determined that the verse is in iambic pentameter (to be formally defined later), in rhymed pairs (called heroic couplets).

Did some preliminary work in prep for Sir Gawain and the Green Knight.

Tomorrow, students will have the opportunity to work on the essay that is due so assistance can be given as needed.
