Revealing the Speaker

This week I learned how to establish who the speakers were in the two poems that we read together in class. Breaking down each sentence and what was said helped to figure out who the speaker was and who he/she was talking too. It doesn't come right out and say who the speaker was, you had to look deeper into the text to figure out who it was. I need to work on taking the time to look at each sentence and being able to find points that reveal who the speaker is. Some of my classmates pointed out some good sentences that helped reveal who the speaker was, and I completely missed those when I was looking through the poems.
