Friday, September 6th

Goals: 

• I can say all of my classmates' names. 
• I can explain what I notice about how a poem is written and develop some logical theories for WHY it is written that way. 
• I can collaborate with a group to create a list poem. 

Announcements: 

• We will get books on Monday. If you have a book from home that you are reading, please bring it then. 

1. Find Your Match: 

• Write two or three statements on a card, such as an interest, goal or dream vacation.
• I will mix up the cards, and the goal is to find the person who matches your new card. 

2. List Poems

• Revise with this checklist and create a final draft.  
• Present to the class
  • ​Feedback--one writing move we noticed or a line that we liked. 
    

3. Writer's Notebook #3:  My Honest Poem

• Watch the poem
• ​Reread it in your Writer's Notebook and mark two moves you notice the writer making. 
• Write your own "honest" poem in your Writer's Notebook.  You can use the template, or deviate from the structure.
