This week in class, we are studying poetry. You ask, how can you study poetry? Well, you study its basics, like exaggerattion, hhyperbole, onomatopoeia etc. No, I”m not giving you the definitions. Anyway, we were supposed to make posters and present it. Mine was idiom, sort of like a figure of speech. My examples were “happy as a horse in a stable”,”pushing up daisies (means your dead), and “butterflies in your stomach”. I ended up drawing a dead horse in a stable holding daisies with butterflies in his stomach. Well, that was this week in class.

WIT themes

Posted on April 15th, 2008 in Wrinkle in Time by 13aterrien

Out of all the themes in Wrinkle in Time, I say that good vs evil and family loyalty are the biggest ones.

The reason I say its good vs evil is becaause Meg and co. are trying to battle the Black Thing and IT. They have to destroy the evil surrounding Camazotz and other planets. Also it talks about how other people in the past aat Earth have been fighting their own black thing through the years. Also, Meg has to fight IT and save CW (Charles Wallace) from the power of IT.

Family Loyalty is also a big part of the book. After all, it all starts with Meg and co. trying to save her father from Camazotz. And at the end, she has to battle IT to save her brother, CW. Through out the book there are scenes where Family Loyalty are is the only theme in the book. Thats why I think Family Loyalty is one of the most important ones.

So, that concludes my hypothesis. If there wass one, which would you choose?
