We are closing our poetry unit. If you failed or didn't learn those poetry terms from the test, please learn them. You will not be able to master writing if you don't know what kinds of tools a writer can use.
Today, during 7th period, please finish any poem drafts you've been working on. I'm not collecting these for grades--that ship has sailed, but you can give them to me to put in your portfolio. You will be revisiting all your poems next semester.
Feel free to continue writing poetry. You don't need my permission. Just write it. If a poem comes to you during a fiction assignment task, feel free to write the poem draft and put it in your portfolio. Want to write a thousand and three poems? Do it. We'll come back to any drafts you write between now and the next time we see poetry in workshop.
During 8th period, please go to room a238. Let's read some advice about awful poems. Then, let's read some awful poems for the fun of it.
HOMEWORK: None. You are free to write and complete any poetry drafts you'd like before we move on to fiction Thursday.
