Week of January 24-28

This week, we will be finishing our unit on poetry and beginning to revise pieces for the final portfolio.

A helpful resource if you wish to read poems in a specific form (e.g. blank verse or ballad form) is the website below:

http://poetryfoundation.org/archive/tool.poem.glossary.html

Click on the form or genre that you want to read for a list of poems in that form.

Homework:

Monday: Bring two typed, revised copes of your ballad to class Tuesday
Tuesday: Illustration for your ballad due Wednesday. Each table group needs ONE trifold.
Wednesday: Bring two revised poems or set of poems (set of haiku or tanka) to class tomorrow.
Thursday: open form (free verse) poems
Friday: revise for final portfolio (due Tuesday)
