Inside - Outside Help!
H/W
Grammar Package (Due: Fri)
Spelling Test will be next Tuesday
Inside/Ouside poem about yourself. (Due: Fri) - further advice below
Don't make your poem more complicated than it needs to be...Think about the assignment for a second... all i'm asking you to do is write a poem about yourself. Now...going a bit further...i'm suggesting ways you can go about doing this by using categories...for example.. write about your personality, your dreams, your fears, your weaknesses etc etc... by thinking about categories gives you a way to organize your thoughts... so the next step is ... how do you do that...???
well why not begin by just writing about yourself in a literal way...
What do other think of you?
They think... all i enjoy writng and i a super students...
your poetry might soon like... outside
A test taking machine some may suggest
Fear of failure is why I strive my best
inside
I think... ..i like doing art....
how can i do that in a poetic and/or figurative way..?
Drawing and mixing paints brightens my days
Being artistic and creative in countless ways
You need to do just 12 lines like this... and maybe find a special way to end...
no...the title doesn't count....(but give a realistic title)
Also..VERY IMPORTANT...there is a rhyming dictionary on the left side of the blog...use it to find words and phrases that rhyme if you want...
Remember my old phrase... NIKE!!!!
