During our long class period on MCA test day, we began by submitting outside reading book reflections. Then we read for 20 minutes. After outside reading we discussed a poem, by William Carlos Williams, which describes a scene. We then went outside to take notes about a scene and wrote our own "Still-Life" poetry.
If you were absent, please submit your reflection and show me--a physical copy of--your outside reading book tomorrow. Also, set aside 2 notebook pages for a "Reading Log"--we will be logging our reading on Wednesdays. Then, create a notebook page entitled, "Still Life Poem." Create a short but descriptive poem, describing an everyday scene (the chair in your bedroom, for example).
HOMEWORK FOR ALL: Create a new blog post and either cut-and-paste your outside reading book reflection, or write a new reflection describing the title and author of your book, and an explanation of why you're reading it. So basically, introduce your book to us on the blog!
