A FAVORITE POEM: PRESENTATION

1. Read through some poems and pick one that you like.

2. Copy the poem, including the title and author's name, onto a Word document.
Make sure you include the title of the poem and the author.

3. Add a heading to your Word document, before your poem.
Your name, your class period and the date.

4. Add an introduction to your Word document before your poem. It should be a strong, substantiating paragraphor chart on the meaning of the poem. What does the poem mean to you? Substantiate your conjecture using one of the strategies.

1. SOAPS definition - SOAPS template chart
2. 5 S's definition - 5 S's template chart
3. Tpcast definition - TPCAST template chart

5. Include an image enhancing your poem choice - ClipArt, magazine picture, your own art or properly cited image using MLA.

6. Make two copies (one you will use to present, the other will be followed by a panel while you present)
Turn both copies in - both are required

7. Your art doesn't have to be on both copies.
A copy for yourself is crucial. No one will be able to present and get a grade if two copies are not turned in.

8. Practice the poem out loud for fluency and expression. Be prepared to present it to class tomorrow.
