Poetry Unit

Poetry!!!!!!!!!!!

Our poetry unit will overlap the novel study.
You will have time to work on novel assignments.  I have booked lab time.


To review your terms and literary devices, please view:

If you were absent for the Emmanuel Jah TED talk, please watch:

http://www.ted.com/talks/emmanuel_jal_the_music_of_a_war_child.html


Watch, then free-write for ten minutes.

Consider the following questions:

What does voice mean to Emmanuel Jah?

Why does he write poetry and music?

Can you pick-up on any recurring images and themes?

Write and save to create a free poem...........later!
