We have begun our unit on poetry - so ridiculously exciting - I know.
Please remember a few things about poetry:
Poetry is meant to be a personal experience - it isn't beyond you to read, understand and enjoy poetry.
NOTHING happens by accident! Writers choose their vocabulary carefully. Pay attention to the use of similes, metaphors and adjectives to understand the choices made by the author.
Read many poems and find one that speaks to you!
