Group Slam Poem Performance; Chapbook Project Due

Today we will be moving downstairs to the Ensemble theater to perform our group slam poems. You will be graded following the rubric and will also have an opportunity to grade each other's performances (and the rehearsal process).

After our performances, please return to the lab to complete your master copies of your poems.

  • Each group must make sure all members of their group are represented in the master file. Points (from the group's grade) will be deducted if anyone's work is missing. Help your peers!
  • Elect someone (or two people) from your group to be your final editor. 
  • All group members should have 5-10 REVISED poem drafts in the master file.
  • As a group, decide on a name for your poetry chapbook. Name your master file the name of your chapbook. Our default name (if this is not done) will be Poetry. If you want a better name, please make sure you title your master file.
  • Share with me your master file from Google docs (please share with: bradley.craddock@rcsdk12.org) Make sure I get the revised and updated copy!
  • Your group will receive a group grade for this assignment based on:
    • Strength and creativity of the poetry (did you include imagery?)
    • Grammar (please use proper grammar in your poetry!)
    • # of poems (every writer should have 5-10 poem drafts!)
    • Pictures/graphics
    • Inclusion of all members
Your master file is due today at the end of class. Please attend to that.


HOMEWORK: None.
