Agenda, April 19

Do Tonight: Read 15 minutes. Record your reading and your pages on your bookmark when you finish.
Do Saturday and Sunday: Read 30 minutes. Record your reading and your pages on your bookmark when you finish.
Due Now: Rare Extra Credit Opportunity - Find examples of alliteration, onomatopoeia, simile, metaphor, personification, hyperbole, oxymoron, or assonance in a poem or song. Make sure your work is neatly organized and easy to read.

Coming Friday, 4/26: Quiz on Elements of Poetry. Can you define them? Can you write them? Can you recognize them in poems? 

Today's Learning Targets:
I can understand the need to respect diversity.

I can read for pleasure.
I can write a poem to fit complex rules.
I can create a visual representation of a literary device to help reinforce my understanding.
