Experiencing Poetry: December 12, 2017

Focus: What can we learn about poetry from each other's creative projects?

1. Warming up by enjoying three poetry projects with follow-up questions and index card feedback

2. Watching a brief interview with Toni Morrison and collecting soundbites

3. Synthesizing ideas about Beloved by composing your big questions blogs

HW for the rest of the semester:

1. For today and Wednesday: Finish your paper/project. Since it's the end of the semester, remember that there will not be an opportunity for extensions or revisions. 

2. For Wednesday and/or Thursday: Bring your laptops and Beloved books to class so that you can compose your final Big Question Blog of the semester. 

3. For next Friday, December 15: Beloved blog due, along with all make-up work / revisions from the past 6 weeks. I cannot accept work after this date because I won't have time to grade it.

4. Remember that your final is on Wednesday, December 20 from 11:30 am to about 3:00 pm. You will need a pencil, a blue or black pen, and notebook paper.
