1. Student poetry readings2. Review the quiz3. Working with our poster projects4. Sharing our “Maxwell Street” poemsToday’s Question: How can we give our poems attitude? Today’s Plan:
Understanding “Tone” • Tone is related to attitude • How many different ways can you say “school starts tomorrow”? • In writing, this attitude comes from word choice (diction) and the way we structure the poem. • Can you identify the tone or attitude of our “Maxwell Street” poems?
Can you identify tone? • Billy Collins’ poem “Litany”(start at 1:52) • What is the “tone” or “attitude” of this poem?
