Week 2, Theme Focus: Individuality/Pain and Pleasure
Grade Level:
12
Subject:
Language Arts
Topic:
The Importance of Individuality/ Pain and Pleasure in Life
Objective:
Students will understand that:
Knowledge can change an individual’s viewpoint and influence his/her actions.
What you don’t know can hurt you.
Some believe that knowledge is potentially dangerous.
We learn things about ourselves through characters in literature.
Pain and pleasure are two sides of the same coin. Without one, the other has less meaning, and more of one than the other, and life can become unbearable, or mundane.
In order for society as a whole to move forward, there must be development, and without a problem to solve, human creativity stagnates.

POS of the Week: Anaphora
In writing or speech, the deliberate repetition of the first part of the sentence in order to achieve an artistic effect is known as Anaphora.
Anaphora, possibly the oldest literary device, has its roots in Biblical Psalms used to emphasize certain words or phrases. Gradually, Elizabethan and Romantic writers brought this device into practice. Examine the following psalm:
“O LORD, rebuke me not in thine anger, neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.
Have mercy upon me, O LORD; for I am weak: O LORD, heal me; for my bones are vexed.
My soul is also sore vexed: but thou, O LORD, how long?”
