The exposition. The exposition explains : setting, characters, and time period.
Answer:
The first stanza helps frame the overall poem by giving us the image of a house of which there is nothing left, only the speaker and her memories.
Explanation:
This poem describes a painful situation in which the protagonist relates about a burned house in which she used to live.
Nothing remains of this house, only the remains of ashes and melted things. The speaker narrates how she is still seen having breakfast and doing things, listening and seeing the loved ones she has lost.
Only she is left, <em>"no one else is around".
</em>
The first stanza already brings us fully into what the poem is going to be: <em>"there is no house, there is no breakfast, yet here I am."</em>
Even though you haven't explicitly asked a question, from the description you provided, we can assume with some certainty you wish to know the kind of design being used by the teacher to find out if the new program is effective. In that case:
Answer:
It is an experimental design.
Explanation:
Experimental design, in educational psychology, refers to the allocation of participants under different conditions with the purpose of finding results. The design used by the reading teacher in the description is the most common way to do it. She divides participants into two different groups, the experimental and the control groups. Change is introduced only to the experimental group so that the results obtained from the two groups can be compared. After some time, the teacher must measure the performance of both groups and compare the results. In case the experimental group performs better, the new reading program will have proved itself effective.
