Classwork: Today we began Writer's Workshop - Day 1 - Narrative Poetry. We discussed how writers use mentor texts to help them identify and examine key elements of the genres they want to emulate. We pasted a checklist into our journals to remind ourselves of the elements in narrative poetry, and used the checklist as a class to identify narrative/poetic elements in two mentor poems. For independent practice, students used the checklist to determine whether or not the poems they brought to class fit within our genre.
Homework: Read!!! Remember: 1st Quarter AR goals: 4 books or 50 points (revised)
