Complete and prepare your slam poem (the one you did for homework). During the second period of this class we will saunter over to the other room to hear some of these out loud. In preparation, read your poem out loud to yourself. Make decisions about rate of speech, rhythm, and vocal quality (like volume or where you stress one word over another). As always, make decisions about your performance BEFORE you begin to speak out loud.
Homework: Please complete your poetry book. Bring this book with you next class.
This introductory creative writing course at the School of the Arts (Rochester, NY) will introduce students to such topics as acting, performance poetry, speech communication, oral interpretation, and writing for a public forum. Writing for Publication will provide students with an understanding of the publishing world, encourage frequent submissions to various publications & contests, and develop word processing and design skills.
