Class Minutes: Tues. Mar. 8th

I handed back the rubrics and descriptive feedback for you poetry reading recordings. Use the feedback to practice your slam performance (Monday).

Then, we read the picture book, "Who Is the World For," and created a found poem with our favourite lines.

Next, we played Poor Man's Magnetic Poetry,creating found poems out of a selection of words in the envelopes. After creating a poem with our partner(s), we read the original poem from which the words came- "Dream Variations," by Langston Hughes.

We started our Tom Phillips found poem assignment, going over the criteria together. We'll be continuing with this on Thursday.
