A new understanding of "Out, out - "

I wrote on "Out, Out -" and I had already had a good understanding on this poem.  Having written on the poem in previous classes, I have a good amount of points to make with the point. Also, when we had conferences, I wrote down everything she gave us and pretty much wrote on that. I did research and found out that Frost's theme of a loss of innocence of young boys reflects his loss of a childhood thanks to WWI that happened when he was a child.  I should have written about this, but I already had plenty of good points, so i chose not to do use it.

In general, I have seen the rhythm and the beat of poetry and have a good appreciation of what poetry is all about.  It makes sense why we would need to read poetry.

    Many of our class resources, for example, our professor and discussions helped a great majority of the class, it seems. So always listening in class and to the professor has its benefits. I'm glad, though you already had a previous experience with your poem. What else helped you write your poem?

    It is great that you were able to decisively narrow down and choose a poem you already had in mind. Having prior knowledge of material prior to writing about it can help tremendously with confidence and understanding all in all.

    I am curious as to whether you did any actual thinking when you wrote your paper, or if you simply had the professor do your outline for you. The only way you will learn to write is if you see the material from your own perspective.
