We spent today's class reviewing strategies for annotating a poem. I modeled my own thinking about the song, "A Little Bit of Everything." We discussed the importance of making detailed, comprehensive notes, both about poetic devices and meaning.
Then, students wrote a paragraph, discussing the theme of the song. The purpose of this paragraph is to inform me of students' strengths, and areas for future attention, with respect to writing about poetry. Paragraphs will be returned early next week.
