Fire and Ice response: Eileen Cuevas

“Fire and Ice” by Robert Frost is a poem that addresses the theme of destruction. The author suggests that the destruction of the world will be brought about through humankind. One of the ways this is suggested is by the use of symbolism. For example, the fire and ice themselves are symbols of something greater. The fire represents desire, which is evident in the lines “From what I’ve tasted of desire / I hold with those who favor fire.” The speaker has had some experience with desire, which is a fiery emotion. Thus, the speaker believes that it is mankind’s overwhelming desire that will be the fire that destroys the world.
On the other hand, ice is also a symbol. The ice mentioned in the poem represents hate. The lines “I think I know enough of hate / to say that for destruction ice / is also great,” refers to ice as hate. In addition to experiences with desire, the speaker has experiences with hate. He or she considers hate to be a powerful emotion that is strong enough to potentially destroy the world. Therefore, man’s cold indifference is strong enough to cause the end of the world.
Additionally, the poem “Fire and Ice” addresses the theme of duality. The author uses diction to make this idea clear. The author uses the words “But if it had to perish twice” to acknowledge that there is more than one way for the world to end. There exists two ways for the world to be destroyed in the poem; one is with fire and the other is with ice. Duality is the existence of opposing ideas within one thing. Fire and ice, as well as desire and hate are both opposites. Knowing that both of these ideas can play a role in the end of the world refers to duality. Hence, the fire and ice exist as the duality within destruction.

Examples of duality exist everywhere. Duality in daily life can refer to a lot of things. Even the foods we eat have a lot of contrary ideas to them. Frozen Hot Chocolate, for instance, is a Hot Chocolate flavored drink that is not hot. Instead, it has the flavor of hot chocolate and is served cold. Therefore, duality can be seen the simplest things one sees every day.
Additionally, in American culture, duality can refer to a person’s dual ethnicity. America is a country full of people with all kinds of ethnicities. For example, a person can be both American and Hispanic, such as they were born and raised here while their family is from the Dominican Republic. Both of these ethnicities have their own set of ideas and customs. Many of these customs may clash with each other at times. Even though two ethnicities may have completely different ideas and customs, they can still co-exist within the same person. The person then finds a way to balance both of these contrary ideals, creating a duality within them.
Furthermore, duality can be seen in literature. In the novel Lord of the Flies by William Golding, the characters constantly face the challenge of staying civilized or becoming savages. These two opposing characteristics are seen in Ralph, who is in the middle of civilized and savage. Ralph does show his civilized side as well as a more savage side throughout the novel, depending on the situation he is in. Because he is in the middle, he has a sense of duality within him.

Fire and Ice Response: Exiel Sanchez

Exiel Sanchez
In the poem “Fire and Ice” by Robert Frost, he addresses the theme of destruction. The author suggests that if the world will end or be destroyed he wishes for the world to end in ice. One of the ways the author suggests this is through the literary element of symbolism. For example, the author uses the literary element of symbolism when he writes, “I think I know enough of hate to say that for destruction ice is also great and would suffice”. In this example the reader can tell that Robert Frost would prefer dying in ice because fire can be a symbol of hatred and he doesn’t want that. Also the reader can tell that he prefers the world ending in ice because he says it is also great and it is just enough.
Fire and ice is one example of duality in life, there are many more. For example, black & white, right & wrong, negative & positive, yes & no, dry & wet. I can’t say America is just one culture because in the borough I live in there are many different cultures. The people in America have a different way of life and different beliefs and customs. American literature is great because anything you have in mind to read, there is to read. For example right now am reading “Still I Rise” by Rolland Laird. What I love about this book is that is a graphic novel about African American history. The literature in America is written in many different ways. There are also many genres to read. The literature in America is unlimited. There are always new books coming out and many young talented writers writing their own book.

•    Hello fellow student from India, my name is Joel. India has been a country I've always been fascinated by. The culture, and the people are beautiful and amazing. The Bollywood scene is another aspect of India that i enjoy. India isn't the only country that fascinates me but other countries as well, maybe its because i would love to travel and learn new things about other cultures would be a enjoyable feeling for me. The history behind these countries success or beliefs is something that intrigues me. You guys can probably infer that I am opening minded about new ideas which is very true. Learning new things about your home country and yourself would be a wonderful experience for me.

•       Hello my name is Emmanuel Lucas Diaz Riva. I’m a musician, I play guitar and bass. I love my music and my guitar. Many different bands such as Def Leppard influence me. Guns N Roses, Iron Maiden, Skid Row, Killswitch Engage, Aerosmith, Judas Priest, Alice Cooper, Anthrax, Metallica, Ozzy, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, The Beatles, Scorpians, and Deep Purple. I grew up listening to these bands since my dad is a musician and a diehard Pink Floyd fan. These are the things that make me who I am. So basically I am the guitar guy with the curly hair that’s how everyone knows me.

•       For starters my name is Eunique Gray. I was born in raised in East Harlem, New York. It’s not the best neighborhood, but I’ve lived there my entire life (so far) and sort of know all the people that live there (except for the newcomers). I am sixteen years of age. I don’t really have much of a hobby. Although, I do like hanging out with my friends (i.e.: bowling, movies, walking around, and eating at restaurants). I would consider myself to be a likable individual.
• 
  
•      One unique thing about me is that I am always busy. I’m involved in an enrichment program afterschool (East Harlem Tutorial Program). There, I am currently enrolled into the FIRST Robotics Program. We build robots based on the game of the year. I have been in the TOURO Pre-Med Program for three years running. During my first year, I went to a college in Harlem, New York (TOURO College) and learned interesting facts about the human body. I actually got the opportunity to go into a lab where cadavers are held and observe and hold human body parts (brain, lung, liver, and heart). I was a bit anxious when I saw the full body cadaver. Also I just got a job working at a frozen yogurt/smoothie) shop.

Thanks for Reading!!

•       My name is Eileen Cuevas. I believe that creativity runs through my blood. My time is spent involving myself in music. I play the piano and reading music has slowly become a third language for me. I usually perform with my high school’s band and have done many performances with them. When I’m not doing anything involving music, I am usually drawing on whatever I can. I am always thinking of something new to draw. The Arts always play a large role in my life.

•       My name is Whitney Page and I am a junior at Mott Hall High School in Harlem. I am very content with the person and I am and where I am going in my life. I aspire to be a college graduate and one day become a real estate broker and/or agent. I live in the NYC Public Housing developments in uptown Harlem. I in no way let that become or influence my personal character. I feel like I know who I am already and I don’t want to change. I’m confident in the person I am and I feel everyone should have high self-esteem. I am seventeen years old and this is my last year of high school. I know I have made many mistakes in my life so far but I believe in having no regrets and referring to them as lessons learned. I feel I am very mature for my age; I have lived a life where I have been subject to see things beyond my years. I don’t allow my parents’ life or my environment to mold me. I am my own person. I am a very motivated person and I want to go far in my life. Living in Harlem has opened me up to a lot of culture and diversity and I love that. Being in high school has made me a more responsible more mature person and I love the person I am becoming.

•           Hi, my name is Yennifer Guzman and i am 18 years old. I'm a

student of New York City, Mott Hall High School in Harlem. I am going

to introduce myself even more than you just knowing my name, my age,

and the school I am going to in NYC. Well, my strength in general, in

school and out of school is writing poem's, i love to play sports

(Baseball, Basketball, Football, Hand ball (new thing with me and my

friends to spend time with each other, and volleyball). I am an

athletic girl that does not go shopping, doing my nails all the time

and think about what other people have to say about me from time to

time. My weaknesses in general is cleaning after other people's mess

that is not caused by me, I don't enjoy reading books from the

schools' library because the teachers don't pick out books that is not

most of the time fun to read in class or at home. If you have any

chance please respond back to this letter.

•        My name is Dyani Martinez. I’m sixteen years old and Dominican. Both of my parents are Dominican. I go to Mott Hall High school, where I’m a junior and about to start the college process. I want to major in Computer Science or Graphic Design. I know during my college experience I want to travel because at this age I haven’t seen many places. I have a nine year old brother by the name of Julian who I adore. He’s only in the second grade, but I hope he looks up to me as a role model.  I feel that life is about learning new things and people. That is why I try to live my life to the fullest. My favorite subject is English because I love to read and write.  I enjoy going to school because I honestly do love to learn. I feel like I grew up knowing how important school is. I try my best to do well in school because I do have high expectations for myself and my parents expect a lot from me.
• 
  
•     I dread waking up in the mornings. It’s like, even though I slept eight hours, I still haven’t slept enough. However, once I’m up, I’m ready to take on the day.  If it’s a weekday, I get ready for school like any other teen. Almost everyday I rush out the door. Those minutes really make a difference.  If it’s a weekend I wake up at 7:30 to get ready for the college courses that I take every Saturday morning. Other times, I might be getting ready for a volunteer project. I am a team leader in New York Cares volunteer group at Mott Hall High School. Besides volunteering, I love to read. I feel that it takes you into another world that you couldn’t even dream of. Being a high school junior is really hectic. There is so much to do and so little time. I feel like I became seventeen over night. I have to worry about what Colleges I’m going to apply to, and where they are located or taking SAT courses and passing the SAT. It may not seem like a lot, but a fellow junior would truly understand the stress I feel. Living in New York, the city of opportunity is really beneficial. Living in Manhattan as a junior in High school is truly interesting.

•      The world and the Universe is too vast a place to not explore it. All the different cultures, traditions and knowledge I am eager to experience. My name is Kelsey and my heart belongs to the world. I'm grateful that I was born in the heart of New York City because I get a taste of the world every time I pass through the streets. I am also grateful that the Internet is allowing me to have contact with people my age that live on a completely different continent.

•     People listen to music and might even have a song on repeat. My passion and my job is to make that song repeat in peoples mind. I love music and everything that's included in it. I am a drummer and want to become known all around world as the person who is the greatest at what he does and a great musician. Music is the greatest feeling and the greatest thing that ever happen to me. My name is Ashmel and it's a pleasure to introduce myself to you.

•      This weekend I spent it with the people I love the most but the most tragic thing happened during Saturday. We lost one of our family friends, which is the craziest thing to happen on a weekend while your trying to have fun. Especially if you’re a Dominican Latina like me, when someone dies we don't want to seem disrespectful and start partying after someone has passed. My name is Shanika Hernandez, I am sixteen years old about to be seventeen June 23rd and I attend Mott Hall High School in Harlem. My school's mostly filled with African-Americans and Latinos/Latinas, but we do learn from one another. I am Dominican as I wrote above but I was born here in New York. Both of my parents are Dominican so I was raised with Dominican culture, and I only have one sibling her name is Sareidy and I adore her with all my heart she's only nineteen about to be twenty but we get along so well as if she was my age or near my age group. My favorite things to do is spend time with my family and listen to music and take things easy even if life is as difficult as people make it seem and is! But I try not to stress myself as much as other people. I like to eat as well all types of food, I like variety and eating something different everyday. My favorite artist of all time is Lady Gaga and I admire her with all my heart and I don't really pay mind to what people say about her. I'm a regular teenage kid you can say, I probably sound like every other teenager and I wouldn't find it odd since when you see something happening you want to be cool as well. It happens we can't do anything about even if you say your not trying to fit in. Another thing about me is that almost every summer I spend it in the Dominican Republic, I really don't see myself spending a summer in New York just because the beaches aren't all that clean and everything just gets filled with people so almost everything is just busy and its hot you really don't want to be around a lot of people. Things I don't like are people who are nosy and are also annoying who repeat themselves a lot I also dislike celery. Well, that's pretty much it about me. Not much to me but those are my likes and my dislikes and also the things I enjoy doing. I really don't do much I consider myself different but who isn't but you can also consider me to be a more matured teenager.

I don't like to get into verbal conflicts because it tends to lead to what I like physical conflict and I hate being told no and that I can't. I am a very strong minded and persuasive person.

•       Hello friends from the other side of the world(I assume). I am writing to you guys from Manhattan, New York. A small little island in the state of New York. Supposedly the greatest city in the world, let me tell you that it probably is the greatest city, but not if you are under age because you are restricted from doing lots of things. First off let me state my name which is Jesus Angel Paredes. I am a Mexican-American Latino, in the school that I am in which is called Mott Hall High School there is not that many of them. This sort of gives me a sense of uniqueness but it also makes me feel like an outcast. I am actually also really interested in music and playing guitar, I like to think this makes me stand out, in a good way. Most probably, the tastes in music we have are different but I am open to almost anything so if you know of any good music please tell me about it. I also must state that I really like soccer, more internationally known as football. Do you guys know about it? I would also like to hear about your  likes and dislikes so write about those.

Chantal Ulloa

 Hi!!!

Iagree with the opinion of the students from India that has to do with the poem fire and ice. Because Robert Frost reflects in his poem that the world can come to and end in two forms, in fire or in ice but fire means war against the villages and ice after war people will not have feelings because of everything they lived . Thank you guys, that's my opinion about Robert Frosts poem.

Malik's comments about "Snehlata - Teacher, Grade X RPVV"

I agree with the students thoughts on Robert Frost's poem "Fire and Ice", I have the same opinion anout it. Again the pictures of classroom and students doing work was pretty cool.

Malik Johnston's comments about Images from the RPVV Grade 10 classroom

I really liked the pictures that the students from India posted. They have to wear uniform just like us. The classroom sizes are pretty much the same as ours, and have about the same amount of students in a classroom. After looking at the pictures from the classroom my whole perspective of India's schooling system has changed completly. I always thought of it as being so much different. I would like to visit India some day to learn more about thier lifestyle and culture, it would seem like a wonderful experience.

Fire and Ice Poem - Rudy Riddick

The poem Fire and Ice according to me means that the world is going to end because people are so evil. The world is going to end from either global warming, people not caring about our world and earth. if ice had to be the way the world was going to end then it would also make people suffer and would also be sufficent. 

angelica perez

The poem mean the some people think the world want to and because the way people treat the other people.  Some of the people saying that the world can be kept up the same way. When the people can do something good for  those people who need it.

Cheikh Diankha opinion on fire and ice

The poem "Fire and Ice" by Robert Frost is about how the world is going to end with don care  and war  because when people die in fire they are not going to live forever.  If you die in ice you still can live but they're going to turn bad because when someone dies, they will not care.  For example, when people die in war, they will not be able to help the other  people that need help.from  the wars.They already saw people dying in the wars.The poet states that the world ends in wars which he describes as "Fire".  If the world was to end twice, he believes that it would be a war first and secondly by the insensitivity of selfish people. The second condition is caused by the war because people already watched other people

Getting to know Mohamed Ndiaye

My name is Mohamed Ndiaye. I am an african boy. I am almost sixteen years old. I grew up in Senegal, a West African country. I came in the United States in April 2010. I live in Harlem, New York. I am going to Mott Hall High School. I am a 10th grader during this schoolyear. My favorite class is ESL. In this class, I am not nervous and I paricipate a lot. I like to play soccer on my free time. It is my favorite sport since I was living in Africa. My favorite soccer player is Frank Lampard and Chelsea is my favorite soccer team. I guess that you guys know them because they are really famous. I want to be a professional soccer player when I grow up. If not, I would like to be a banker because I like to work with money.

Chantal Ulloa's opinion on fire and ice

The poem ''Fire and Ice'' by Robert Frost is about how the world is going to end .The author believe that the world will end in fire or in ice. When the writer use metaphor in fire he mean war because, the world will end when the countries  start  wars between them. When the writer use metaphor in ice he means that the people that lived after the war will care about others people because, they saw their families died,and the world destroy they don't have emotions for life.

I agree with the writer because it is possible that the world will end when the countries start the war and maybe when the war ends nobody will care about what happens with the people who survived because after they live through the wars they will not have emotions just as they saw they families and they friends died.

Mohamed Ndiaye's Opinion on "Fire & Ice"

The poem"Fire & Ice" by Robert Frost is about the conditions in which the world will end. I believe that the poet Robert Frost is saying that the world can end in wars. He also said that the world can end with big disasters like earthquakes. In this condition the people would not care about other people's feelings or emotions.These are people who survived from the wars.They already saw people dying in the wars.The poet states that the world ends in wars which he describes as "Fire".  If the world was to end twice, he believes that it would be a war first and secondly by the insensitivity of selfish people. The second condition is caused by the war because people already watched other people dying.

Yolandys Paulino's Opinion on Fire & Ice

According to Robert Frost this poem is about how is it to going to be the end of the world. I think when he say the world end in fire is that the world end in war and hatred against other countries around. When he say the world end in ice is that people are going to go cold and will not care what happens to the other. My opinion is I agree with him because is possible that the world will end that way. Because now at this moment there are many wars between countries and also there are people who do not care anything about what happens in the world.

Juan Miguel Santana's Opinion on Robert frost Fire and Ice

The poem "Fire and Ice" by Robert Frost talks about what many say the world will end in fire or ice. In this poem the word fire and ice word has another meaning out of the ordinary. Fire the author the world will end in a bloody war. Ice means that the person will become a cold and did not care anything about what happens to the other people. My opinion on this poem is that I agree with the author. That the world may end in a bloody war and also can be finished in that people do not mind dying, or what might happen to the other

Images from the RPVV Grade 10 classroom - Discussing "Fire and Ice"

These are images showing students getting ready for group work in class, discussing the emotions and feelings related to the words 'fire and ice' and then the final responses displayed on the classroom board.

Snehlata - Teacher, Grade X RPVV

We've been talking about Robert Frost and his poems in our class. Last year we'd read his poem, The Road Not Taken.
We've been talking about what we already know about Robert Frost and what kind of poems he writes.
Then we read his poem Fire and Ice.
In groups we discussed what emotions and feelings we associate with 'Fire' and 'Ice'. We also talked a little bit about the different worlds we inhabit.
How do these different emotions affect the worlds we inhabit? (They have the power to destroy us, harm us)
The discussions will continue...
We are also asking ourselves the questions - Is this a poem? What makes it a poem?
(Some ideas for these discussions/lessons were taken from the English Teachers Network - ETNI)
