Announcements Competition

Announcements: Guidelines/suggestions/announcements for your week:

Your announcement poem will have all the basic info. e.g.

•mention of  core values or core value focus of a day
 •introducing yourselves
 •vocabulary/phrase of the day
•typical stuff - walking in hallways/ behavior on buses
 •what happened on  your day in history (research you must do)
 •ideally,  most of your poem should rhyme (don't forget alliteration, assonance, and consonance patterns)

VERY IMPORTANT - Create a template stanza that is poetic that could add any last minute announcements into that the school might throw at you in the morning...e.g. lets say that you are told...announce band concert rehearsals this Friday... you could have already prepared...

"______________________________________is something that you must not forget"

"if you're not______________________________ it is something that you might regret"

 so you would say...

 band concert rehearsals this Friday is something that you must not forget"
if you're not_there on friday__________ it is something that you might regret"

Do you see how these lines could then be adapted for any last minute announcements you are given? 

This info. is all I have at present.
