Poetry Writing

Before you get started writing/typing your poetry, everyone must create a folder in either Google Drive or on your H: drive (for example, EatonE).  I want you to save and store all of your poetry in this folder.  Some of you have already created this folder.

International Festival & Poetry

Today, please work on the following:
1. Finish your Facts about Australia and print.  DO NOT PRINT UNTIL SOMEONE CHECKS YOUR WORK FOR ANY MISSPELLINGS.

2. Finish editing and writing The Cricket in Times Square Summary (Mrs. Seaton's class).  Print it for Mrs. Seaton.

3. Continue to work on poetry.  Scroll down to my post from last week about different types of poetry.  I have added some new styles of poetry for you to try if you'd like (Limericks and Concrete Poems - highlighted in red).

Your Learning Style & Australia

First, Mr. Rook asked that you take the following quiz in order to help determine your specific learning style (how you learn best: visual, musical, logical/mathmatical, intrapersonal, etc.).  Please print the results when you are done.

The second part of class will consist of typing some of your facts about didgeridoos and Australia.  You should use eye-catching fonts, colors and clip art.  These will go on display in your classroom for the International Festival on Friday.  See a sample of the one I created below.
