In Bigger Hearts, unit 8,day 3 , there are some questions about the poem "Prayer". I am not sure how to answer them, so how could my child?

I heard there is a yahoo group for HOD and that they have a lot of printable. Does anyone know if there are any printables with the answer keys (or at least samples of AK) for the guides ? I think with bigger, I am still doing ok, which means I am on the floating line , but I will surely drown in the upper guides without support ...I am having a hard time especially with the poetry .

So can anyone help me?

What is the mood or feeling reflected by this poem ?

If I remember correctly I think my son and I determined this poem was serious, or thoughtful as stated when you read the poem the second way.
You are suppose to read the poem with enthusiasm the first time and this would be the "mood". The 2nd time you read it , you are supposed to read it in a slow, thoughtful manner. This would be the mood of the poem then.
I hope this help.
We are really enjoying the poetry. So much of what we get in HOD is not what i remember in school. Feels like i am in school again.
