Good Copies and Pantoums!

Hi all,

Today in class I collected the good copies of your literary paragraphs.  I was really impressed with the work yesterday and how many of you managed to finish your work in class.  Well done!

After collecting your paragraphs, I talked to you about writing a pantoum today.  We focused on descriptive writing, and edited one of your free writes to use as a jumping off point for the pantoum.

For the remainder of class, we completed a gallery walk.  This had you moving around the room and reading different poems.  The goal of this task was to get you comprehending and responding to poetry as a way of practising your term knowledge as we approach the final exam.

Good work today everyone!

No homework :)  Have a great long weekend!
