10/11/2023 – ELA Writing – Developing Strong Paragraphs

We’ve moved on from writing strong sentences to writing strong paragraphs.

Use the image below to work on…

  1. Your seethinkwonder chart.
  2. After you are done, begin writing a single paragraph about what you think is happening in the image.

**TIP** Remember to only pick a couple of your points. I’m looking for expanded ideas, not just lists of what you see. I want to know WHY you think something is happening.

 

04/18/23 – Poetry

Poetry Unit 

Due: Thursday April 27

In your assigned groups of 3, you will need to do the following: 

  1. Create a PPT teaching the class how to write your assigned type of poem. This means you have to research how to write your poem. 
    1. In this PPT, you will also need to provide at least one example.
  2. On YouTube, search up “Animated Short Film” – you will have to show this video to the class, and the class will have to use that short film as their inspiration for their poem
  3. On WORD, you will need to create a neat worksheet that your classmates can work on after they’ve watched the video. 
    1. Your worksheet should have the instructions on how to write the poem, in case someone is absent and needs to catch up

 

Use specific terminology in your PowerPoint and Word document: 

Stanza / Couplet / Tercet / Quatrain / Sestet / Rhyme / Rhyme Scheme / Syllable / Line
