We started a poetry unit in class today. The students were given a study guide containing poetry elements that they need to know. The students also learned how to determine a poem’s rhyme scheme. We began reading the poem “Sneetches,” which begins on page 627 of the blue reading book.
Homework: You must take an AR test and print out your grade by Friday of this week. We will have a test Friday over the poetry terms given today in class (see study guide) and the poem “Sneetches.”
Spring pictures will be taken on Wednesday of this week.
