1. Type three new snapshot poems (one about a family member, one about Leila, and one about another member of the LREI community) and turn them in with handwritten annotations that explain why you broke each line when you did. To refresh your memory, click here to see the line break activity we did together in class. Each poem should paint a picture using words!
2. Soon I will be collecting your “poetry portfolio,” which will count as a project grade. Gather all the poems you have written since we started the poetry unit so that you can choose the best of the best to turn in. You do not need to choose the “best” poems yet. Just locate the following:
a. On Turning ___
b. “so much depends” poems based on Williams’s poem
c. odes to everyday things
d. garbage poems (garbage, diamond in the rough, unbeautiful)
e. word poems
f. snapshot poems
