Poetry Out Loud - Day 4

Now that you have your poem and have started to work with it, it's time to get to know it well.

Here's the plan for today:

1. Choose a partner - stand together somewhere in the room (stand, not sit!). Read / recite your poem to that person 2-3 times. Don't forget to switch and listen to the other person's poem!
2. Make a copy of this document to use today. Hopefully the directions there are self-explanatory. Take your time - this should take you 30 minutes or more.
3. When you are finished, upload your work to turnitin.com
4. Lastly, find a different partner to work with and read / recite your poem to that person 2-3 times. Switch!

Your homework is to practice reciting your poem multiple times throughout the weekend. Recite it to your friends, your family, your dog, your snapchat story - whatever works! On Monday morning we will start with a quiz - you will write out your poem! Good luck with it!
