Congratulations Mrs. Williamson!!!

Williamson LOTW

Get ready to shoot some literary hoops. It's March Madness time, but we've been scoring points with poems instead of basketballs. So, with that context clue, who's our MVP for this week's Lesson of the Week? 

In Mrs. Williamson's AP Literature poetry showdown, students embarked on a riveting rhyme rumble, where 16 carefully curated poems battled it out for the coveted title in a literary bracket brawl. With a poetic prowess that would make Shakespeare proud, the class delved into the depths of meter, metaphor, and meaning, dissecting each stanza with the precision of a surgeon. Through spirited debates and pun-packed discussions, students unearthed hidden gems and unraveled the mysteries of verse, ultimately crowning the victor amidst a chorus of metaphorical applause. Mrs. Williamson's one-of-a-kind teaching style not only made the process a joyride but also set the stage for her students to flourish like never before in the realm of rhymes and rhythms. Congratulations Mrs. Williamson and her AP Literature students, you are the true winners of this week's March Madness!
