      Specific Expectations: 
      Reading for Meaning - 1.4; 1.6

      Learning Goals: 
      In this lesson you will become aware of how literature reflects the challenges we all face in life from our childhood to old age. Although as students you live day-to-day under the care of adults, there will come a time, as the poems we examine in the lesson show, when you will make your way independently in the world.  How we can cope with the challenges we face as we grow are lessons that literature can teach us.
