Today students are completing page 10 in their poetry booklets. They will be writing a Demonstrational Poem. This is the students first attempt at writing a polished and focused poem and must demonstrate 6 of the poetic devices we studied yesterday. The poem also needs to be annotated with an Answer Key showing and explaining the 6 poetic devices used in the poem.
The second half of the class students will be looking at and practicing how to properly analyze a poem. They will find a poem of their own (this can be done online) and can include music lyrics from a favourite song if they choose. They will then answer the following questions on page 13 of their poetry booklets.
Pay special attention to questions 2/4/5 & 9, each of these could be a paragraph or longer when completed.
This will need to be done by the end of class this Friday, May 10, 2019.
