ELEMENTS OF POETRY According to your notes, there are 3 main elements: 1. Diction ➡️ The choice and use of words by the poet. There are two types of meaning: Denotative Literal or dictionary meaning. Example: Dove = a bird Connotative Associated, emotional, or symbolic meaning. Example: Dove = peace 🧠 Remember: Denotative = Dictionary Connotative = Connection/feeling --- 2. Images and Sense Impressions ➡️ Words used to create mental pictures and appeal to our senses. The five senses: 👁️ Sight – what you see 👂 Hearing – what you hear 👃 Smell – what you smell 👅 Taste – what you taste ✋ Touch – what you feel Example: “The warm bread smelled sweet and tasted delicious.” This appeals to touch, smell, and taste. 🧠 Keyword: SENSES --- 3. Figures of Speech ➡️ Special ways of using words to make writing more meaningful or expressive. Your figures of speech: Personification → Gives human characteristics to non-human things. “The flowers danced.” Hyperbole → Exaggeration. “I told you a million times.” Synecdoche → A part represents the whole. “We need more hands.” → hands = people Metonymy → Uses something closely associated with another thing. “The crown decided.” → crown = royalty Oxymoron → Two contradictory words together. “Deafening silence.” Paradox → A seemingly contradictory idea that has a deeper meaning. “Less is more.” --- III. CONFLICT What is Conflict? Conflict is the problem or struggle in a story. It is: The problem in the drama A force that makes the narrative move forward A struggle or tension between opposing forces Something that can reveal a deeper meaning in a narrative 🧠 Keyword: STRUGGLE / PROBLEM --- IV. GENERAL TYPES OF CONFLICT There are 2 general types: A. INTERNAL CONFLICT 🧠 ➡️ A conflict that happens within the character. It can be caused by: Morality Desires Fears Beliefs Character vs. Self The character struggles with their own thoughts, feelings, decisions, or beliefs. Example: A student wants to cheat but knows that cheating is wrong. 🧠 Internal = INSIDE THE CHARACTER --- B. EXTERNAL CONFLICT 🌎 ➡️ A struggle between a character and an outside force. Types: Character vs. Character → One character struggles against another character. Character vs. Society → A character struggles against society, rules, or social expectations. Character vs. Nature → A character struggles against nature or natural forces. 🧠 External = OUTSIDE THE CHARACTER --- V. CHARACTER Character A character is a person, animal, or being that takes part in a story. Characters help move the plot and experience conflicts. --- VI. TYPES OF MAJOR CHARACTERS 1. Protagonist ➡️ The main character of the story. The story usually focuses on their goals, struggles, and experiences. 🧠 Protagonist = MAIN CHARACTER --- 2. Antagonist ➡️ The character or force that opposes the protagonist. The antagonist creates obstacles or conflict for the protagonist. 🧠 Antagonist = OPPOSING FORCE Easy to remember: PROtagonist → PRO = main character you're following ANTagonist → ANTI = against the protagonist --- VII. CHARACTERIZATION Characterization ➡️ The way an author reveals or develops a character's personality, traits, and qualities. There are 2 ways: --- 1. DIRECT CHARACTERIZATION ➡️ The author directly tells the reader what the character is like. Example: > “Maria was kind and generous.” The author directly says that Maria is kind and generous. 🧠 Direct = AUTHOR TELLS YOU --- 2. INDIRECT CHARACTERIZATION ➡️ The author shows the character's personality through their: Speech – what they say Thoughts – what they think Actions – what they do Appearance – how they look Interactions – how they treat others Example: > Maria gave her lunch to a hungry classmate. We can infer that Maria is kind even though the author didn't directly say it. 🧠 Indirect = AUTHOR SHOWS YOU --- ⭐ DIRECT VS.

🌎 PHYSICAL GEOGRAPHY — SIMPLE STUDY NOTES 1. What is Geography? 🗺️ Geography Geography = studying places on Earth and what happens there. Easy way to remember: History = WHEN things happened Geography = WHERE things happen Physical Geography Physical geography = studying the natural parts of Earth. Examples: * 🌋 Volcanoes * 🌊 Oceans * 🌧️ Weather * 🌳 Plants * 🏔️ Mountains * 🌎 Earth’s surface Human Geography Human geography = studying people and how they interact with places. Examples: * Cities * Population * Culture * Migration * Businesses Geographic Techniques These are tools geographers use to study Earth. ⸻ 🛰️ 2. Remote Sensing Remote Sensing Measuring or studying something from far away WITHOUT touching it. Think: 👀 Looking at Earth from a distance Examples: * 🛰️ Satellite * ✈️ Airplane * 🚁 UAV/drone Quizlet card Q: What is remote sensing? A: Studying or measuring Earth from a distance. ⸻ 🌍 3. Latitude & Longitude THIS is important. Imagine Earth has an invisible grid around it. The grid helps us say exactly where a place is. There are two main directions: LATITUDE = up and down on a map Latitude tells you how far NORTH or SOUTH you are from the Equator. 🌎 Equator = 0° latitude Think: LATITUDE = LADDER 🪜 The lines look like they go across Earth, but latitude tells you NORTH or SOUTH. Examples: * Equator = 0° * North Pole = 90° N * South Pole = 90° S So: 40° N = 40 degrees north of the Equator. ⸻ 📍 4. Longitude Longitude tells you how far EAST or WEST you are from the Prime Meridian. The Prime Meridian is: 0° longitude It runs through Greenwich, England. Think: LONGITUDE = LONG lines that go from pole to pole Longitude goes: 0° → 180° East 0° → 180° West A ⸻ 🧠 EASIEST WAY TO REMEMBER. What does it measure? Starting point Latitude North ↕ South Equator = 0° Longitude East ↔ West Prime Meridian = 0° Memory trick: LAT = flat Latitude lines look flat/horizontal on most maps. LONG = long Longitude lines go long from pole to pole. ⸻ 🌎 5. Hemispheres “Hemi” means half. So a hemisphere is simply half of Earth. There are 4: Northern Hemisphere Above the Equator. Southern Hemisphere Below the Equator. Eastern Hemisphere East of the Prime Meridian. Western Hemisphere West of the Prime Meridian. ⸻ ⭐ 6. POLARIS QUESTION Your professor asks: If Polaris is 39° above the horizon, what is your latitude? Don’t panic. 😭 The rule: Polaris’s angle above the horizon = your latitude BUT this works in the Northern Hemisphere. So: Polaris = 39° Therefore: ✅ Latitude = 39° N That’s literally it. Why? Polaris is basically lined up with the North Pole. If you’re: * At the Equator → Polaris is about 0° above the horizon. * At 39° N → Polaris is 39° above the horizon. * At the North Pole → Polaris is about 90° above the horizon. So: Polaris angle = latitude Quizlet Q: Polaris is 39° above the horizon. What is your latitude? A: 39° N ⸻ 🕘 7. THE LONGITUDE MATH QUESTION This one looks scary because your professor wrote a bunch of stuff. But it’s really just two steps. Question: You set your watch to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). You travel somewhere else. When the Sun is directly overhead, your watch says 9 AM. What is your longitude? First understand: ☀️ “Sun directly overhead” This means: It is local solar noon. In other words: The place you’re standing = NOON But your watch says: 9 AM GMT So: Noon - 9 AM = 3 hours You’re 3 hours behind Greenwich. ⸻ 🧮 Now the important math Earth rotates: 15° every hour This is something you should memorize. So: 3 hours × 15° = 45° Therefore: ✅ 45° West Why WEST? Because your location is experiencing noon later than Greenwich. Think: Greenwich already reached noon. Your location is still behind Greenwich’s time. So you’re WEST. The whole problem: 12 PM − 9 AM = 3 hours 3 × 15° = 45° Answer: ⭐ 45° W ⸻ ☀️ SUN ANGLE HIGH/DIRECT ANGLE ☀️ ⬇️ ⬇️ 🌎 Energy is concentrated → stronger heating 🔥 LOW ANGLE ☀️ ↘️ ↘️ ↘️ 🌎 Energy spreads out → weaker heating 🥶 🧠 Remember: STRAIGHT = STRONG ☀️ TILTED = WEAKER ☀️ ⸻ 📐 PERPENDICULAR Perpendicular = 90° Think: ⊥ One line is standing straight on another. For sunlight: ☀️ ⬇️ ⬇️ ━━━━ Earth The sunlight is hitting the surface straight on.
