FRIDAY! January 7

Today we accomplished the following tasks:
  1. Corrected Vocab Parts 4-6
  2. Looked at a draft of the "Inspired by the Sunrise" poem from yesterday.  We discussed the feedback I received from a friend and how to "comb through" a poem to drop dead/overused words.
  3. Discussed what your final draft will look like (see below)
  4. You work-shopped your poem with others and had an opportunity to speak with me if you desired
HOMEWORK:
  • CREATE A FINAL POEM: 
    • MUST BE: typed, 10-12 size font, at least 70 words, have a title
    • the first thing on the page will be the title, then the body of your work (poem), last will be a BY: (by line) and then WORDS: (with the word count)
    • Bring ALL drafts along with your final publishable piece
  • STUDY FOR UNIT 10 VOCAB TEST----IT WILL BE MONDAY!
