HOMEWORK: Due Thurs/Fri

  2. Worksheet“YOU & I” – simile poem worksheet – complete the 3 steps: 1. list 5 ppl; 2. Fill in the simile descriptive chart for 2 ppl and yourself; take the similes you wrote for yourself and 1 other person and write “You” and “I” poems like the one on p. 38 in your duotang.
  3. POETRY PROJECT – Read through the green instruction sheet to remind yourself of what is required for your project.  Brainstorm possible themes for the project and come to class with at least ONE theme that you could focus your whole project on.  Word of advice: choose a theme that you like that is broad, rather than narrow/too specific, so you don’t limit your writing options- ex. life, growing up, friendship, travel, etc.
  4. Do your quiz corrections!
