Please listen and be attentive to the last 4 performers of the poetry collection readings. Follow instructions by the substitute today.

When you have listened attentively to the performances, please complete the following tasks in the lab:

  • Complete a draft of your performance collaborative slam poem (with your peers) and turn in your draft by the end of class today.
  • Complete your draft inspired by the style of one of the poems in your collection (or the style of poem in your collection). See assignment instructions in the posts below for details. Complete your own original poem draft and turn in by the end of class.
  • Type up any poem drafts in your journal or from the exercises we have completed during the poetry unit. There have been more than five different poem assignments. Check the last few weeks of our blog for details. Type up these drafts and turn them in to the in-box for credit.
