Agenda
This week our focus will be on reading and analyzing narrative and lyric poems. We'll be identifying examples of figurative language and looking for characteristics of these types of poetry.
We have a lot going on this week! Students should be aware of the following important dates:
Monday Dec. 5 - QUIZ on adverbs and double negatives [postponed until Tuesday]
Thursday Dec. 8 - [EDITED 12/5] If you wish to participate in Poetry Cafe refreshments, you must bring a snack to share - this can be chips, snack crackers, cookies, etc.
Also, I must receive a typed copy of the poem each student intends to present at the Poetry Cafe. Please indicate heart, soul, or mind on your poem.
Friday Dec. 9 - QUIZ on narrative and lyric poetry
Looking ahead..... Remember the Poetry Cafe will be held on Dec. 12, 13, & 14. You need to decide which poem you're going to read and start practicing your presentation skills!!
