Welcome To Wiki!

     In the Hawaiian language, "wiki" means quick. This is a quick, interactive site for English 9 students. Always keep in mind that this public domain is an educational resource; therefore, students must not post anything they do not want their principal, parents, and clergyman/woman to read. Inappropriate content will generate unpleasant consequences.   

                                   

Please review our rules for using this site:

 

  • We will post quality work.
  • We will respect the work of others.
  • We will post only content that is academically relevant.

 

 

 

     Many rap artists use alliteration and assonance in their lyrics. Eminem, for example, uses assonance in his songs such as in his classic, "Without Me":

 

When I get shocked

at the hospital

by the doctor

when I'm not cooperating

when I'm rocking the table

while he's operating

 

The repetitive vowel sound is /aw/. Note that not all of the o's carry this sound so they are not included. 

 

     Create lyrics of your own that contain alliteration, assonance, and just for fun, at least one example of onomatopoeia. Unlike rap artists, however, your topic and vocabulary must be school appropriate. Be ready to perform in class on Monday, November 28.
