Crafting Poetry

Take 10-15 minutes to print out and prepare your 3 poem drafts (see previous post for details).

Then, let's go next door for some crafting advice and work. You will be working alone and with one other person.

Then back to the lab.

Rewrite your drafts. Change your draft #'s. Let them sit for a few days and bake.

In the meantime, please complete the reading of the handout. Read the poems there. And write. Add material and poetry drafts to your portfolio.

HOMEWORK: None. See above.
