Ms. Nakada's Virtual Classroom: Day 30

Agenda:

Check-in

Writing Your Introduction

HW: RJ 16.2 read for 20-30 minutes and record. 

Good morning, y'all and happy early Tuesday. Today is also Cinco de Mayo which recognizes an unlikely victory by Mexico over the French in Pueblo. So if you're celebrating, enjoy, and don't be racist. If you aren't sure what this would entail, we can discuss, but most of y'all seem smarter than the average person on issues of race and cultural appreciation v. appropriation.

Today's Zoom class is short for Tuesday at 1:00. 

Ok, for our check-in question: what are you reading? 

Today we're going to work on writing our introductions. 

In your introduction you can tell a little about the context of your poems. You can write about how you feel about poetry and who inspired poetry during this time. Here is my sample for this year: 

Write your introductions today and putting your collections together. I'll see you tomorrow.
