Jermaine’s Postscript To His Seventh-Grade Poem Assignment by Christopher Molnar “Ms. Tyler, the girl part was about Shantell. Please don’t tell anyone.”
Explicit Question: Who wrote the poem? Jermaine Implicit Question: Why do you think Jermaine does not want his teacher to tell Shantell that he wrote a poem about her? Jermaine probably likes Shantell, but would be embarrassed if she knew. Philosophical/Universal Question: Why is so much poetry written about love? Poetry allows for expressions of emotions that you may not want to say aloud. Often love is one of those emotions that is hard to vocalize.
Fertility by Kirsten Beachy My Muscovy duck hatched seventeen ducklings—along with four chicks from eggs the hens snuck into her nest. I’m still waiting.
Explicit Question: How many ducklings were hatched? seventeen Implicit Question: What do you think the narrator is still waiting for? She is waiting to have a baby/get pregnant? Philosophical/Universal Question: Should Mother’s Day/Father’s Day be national holidays when there are couples who are unable to have children? Yes. However, when the day is celebrated in a public setting, there needs to be acknowledgement of those still waiting to be parents.
Trust by Don Lee At the party, he tells her he’s a painter, meaning of houses. She misunderstands, assumes he’s an artist. Harmless, he thinks.
Explicit Question: What is the man’s profession? house painter Implicit Question: Why does the man not correct the woman’s misunderstanding of his profession? He does not consider it a very serious misunderstanding and he may think she will like him more if he is an artist and not a house painter. Philosophical/Universal Question: Are you lying if you do not correct misunderstandings in communication? Why or Why not? Yes. Communication is both speaking and listening. If you know a person has listened to but not understood your message, you must correct it, even if you think the misunderstanding is harmless.
