The first two sessions of class will focus on understanding the Longfellow poem. We will examine imagery, meter, rhyme scheme, and word choice to discover how the poet builds suspense and the emotional power of the poem. We will also sketch the imagery and action of the poem to support our comprehension. During the third and fourth session, we will revisit the poem, but this time we will compare the fictional account with the historical facts of that night and its influence of the American Revolution. We will learn more about what really happened that night, and we will examine the clues about why Longfellow made the changes he made in his poem. We will also read Paul Revere's deposition describing the events of that night in his own words and discuss the importance of primary sources in the study of history.
Metas de aprendizaje

Experiencia y certificaciones del docente
As a lover of poetry and of history, Longfellow's "The Midnight Ride of Paul Revere" has long been a favorite of mine, and I have found that the vivid imagery of the poem makes it an excellent choice for students who may have had little experience with poetry before. Also, many students enjoy being let in on the secret and learning the real story behind the scenes. Finally, the existence of Paul Revere's first-hand account gives us the opportunity to travel back in time to one of the most important moments in American history.Reseñas
