First Homework of 2010!

9th Graders!

For tonight, I want you to do some work on the poem that you selected for your poetry project. I would like for you to read your poem several times tonight - after you've done this answer the following question and put your response in the box.

Why did you choose the poem that you chose?


As you answer this question, I would like for you to answer with a clear topic sentnece that identifies the author and title of your poem written in the correct way. In your topic sentence, you should identify two or three specific things (literary devices) about the poem that influenced your decision. In the body of your paragraph, use examples from the poem to explain your answer.

This is due to the box on Thursday/Friday.
