Everything we've discussed or read during the poetry unit is fair game for the poetry unit exam. I will be drawing the majority of questions, however, from this collection of poems and concepts:

Terms and concepts

rhythm and how to scan a poem (iambic pentameter, trochaic hexameter, etc.)
meter
metrical foot (in general and in particular the common metrical feet)
blank verse
free verse
scansion
lyric poem
nihilism
atheism

euphony
cacophony
onomatopoeia
alliteration
assonance

Poems

Understand the meaning of each poem and be prepared to analyze rhyme, meter, and tone. Be prepared to paraphrase any of these poems.

“The Lake Isle of Innisfree”
“Piano”
“Aunt Jennifer’s Tigers”
“Out, Out—”
“My Last Duchess”
“My Papa’s Waltz”
“For a Lady I know”
“The Author to Her Book”
“To a Locomotive in Winter”
“I like to see it lap the miles”
“To the Desert”
“For My Daughter”
“White Lies”
“Luke Havergal”
“Monologue for an Onion”
“I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud”
“The Red Wheelbarrow”
“This is Just to Say”
“Silence”
“Down, Wanton, Down!”
“Aftermath”
“Grass”
“Blandeur”
“The Ruined Maid”
“A Slumber Did My Spirit Seal”
“On my boat on Lake Cayuga”
“The Hippopotamus”
“God’s Grandeur”
“We Real Cool”
“Break, Break, Break”
“When I was one and twenty”
“Smell”
“Beat! Beat! Drums!”

Again, any poem or concept from your reading assignments may be on the test, regardless of whether or not we discussed it in class. Poems and ideas we discussed, however, will make up the biggest part of the exam.
