Poetry Out Loud!

I hope you enjoyed the videos yesterday and have a little sense of what this project looks like. Here are a few examples (we'll watch a few each day) of some other students (from around the country) to check out and (hopefully) inspire you.

After we watch and discuss them, here is the plan for the day:
  1. Go to the website to start the process of choosing a poem 
  2. In a new Google doc, copy and paste three poems (including but not just the title and author) 
  3. For each one, write 3-4 sentences about why you chose it 
  4. Submit your work to Schoology by the start of class tomorrow.
