Class Brainstorms on What Makes a Poem "Poem-y" . . .
We are currently studying poetry. We'll be reading poems, writing poems, and also doing a shared reading of a novel in verse: Home of the Brave, by Katherine Applegate.
Students: Stay on track with your reading! All students should be reading 20 minutes per night in your SSR/independent reading book. That is your nightly ELA homework.
