You should work on your animotos. Be sure to bring your flash drive if you have not downloaded all your pictures for your animoto project. We are working on our projects tomorrow. Make a page under Language Arts on your website and copy your passion project criteria onto your website under Language Arts - Passion project drop down. Now that we have learned the various poetic devices, we can practice writing our own poems. We also are going to practice giving helpful feedback to our classmates. Your poetry homework tonight: • type your 5-line personification poem and 4-line poem showing any device. • give feedback to at least one classmate, tell them what you notice about their poem, give them a helpful suggestion if you have one. • also see if you can guess which poetic device people used for their 4-line poem. Reading: Wonder will be tomorrow...bring stickies. Questions that I have Wows, what strikes me as interesting or intriguing Images created in my mind Language that is exquisite
