Today we read for 15 minutes, kept post its and logged that time.
While computers were booting up, we found the reflections section of our Reader's notebooks and began by putting today's date on the page and finishing the sentence stem "the most difficult part of yesterday's activities was...."
We then told what criteria we based our selection on yesterday. In other words, why did you choose the poems you did? How did you select one over the other?
Next we found our poems on the poetry anthology for each class (see yesterday's post for the link) (hint use ctrl F on pc or command F on a mac to search for your poem's title). We wrote a new part of hte entry that identified the poems we chose by writing the following:
I chose " " by and " " by .
Next we were instructed to identify the line/word or image that we liked best from each of our two poems. We first had to read each poem 2 times then we needed to start the response with the following:
In " " by I liked the line/word/stanza, " ". Here is why......
DO this for BOTH poems.
HW: finish in class writing if you did not do so in class or if you forgot your readers notebook, transfer what you did in class to that. Reading logs will be collected on Monday.
