  1. Bell Ringer We were standing up to our boot tops in snow on a front yard on trafficked Reynolds Street, waiting for cars. We stood on trafficked Reynolds Street, waiting. Study the sentences carefully. Zoom in on them. How are the sentences alike? How are they different?

  2. vocabulary • Get your vocab grid out of your notebooks • Review vocab • Return your vocab grid to the vocab section of your notebooks

  3. “I Am” Poems • Finish your “I Am” poem. • Revise your “I Am” poem. Remember that these will be displayed. • Pass your “I Am” poem to around your group to other students who are finished. As you read the poem, sign your name to show that it has been read. • Make more revisions.

  4. Now You Try! Write an I Am Poem Method: • I am (two special characteristics) • I wonder (something you are actually curious about) • I hear (an imaginary sound) • I see (an imaginary sight) • I want (an actual desire) • I am (the first line of the poem restated) • I pretend (something you pretend to do) • I feel (a feeling about something imaginary) • I touch (an imaginary touch) • I worry (something that really bothers you) • I cry (something that makes you very sad) • I am (the first line of the poem repeated) • I understand (something you know is true) • I say (something you believe in) • I dream (something you actually dream about) • I try (something you make an effort to do) • I hope (something you actually hope for) • I am (the first line of the poem repeated) 

  5. Can you define rhyme scheme? • 2. Can you identify rhyme scheme? • 3. Can you define onomatopoeia? • 4. Can you identify onomatopoeia?

  6. Review Textbook Procedures • You are responsible for your textbook. Since you share it with 2 other people, it is up to you to tell me if there is any damage whenever you get your book. If the next block person tells me of damage, I will assume you are the one who damaged it. • Textbooks are stacked according to number. Whenever you return your textbook, make sure that it is in the correct stack. (I don’t care if they are in numerical order.)

  7. Review Textbook Procedures 3. Your textbooks should NEVER go on the floor, the covers will get scratched from the dirt. 4. Keep the book covers on the hardback books to protect them as much as possible. It will cost you $80 to replace one. 5. Do NOT write in the workbooks

  8. Sound Devices • Open your textbook to p.650, “Sarah Cynthia…” • Let’s read the poem together. • What do you notice about the sound of the poem? • Let’s analyze: how do the ending rhymes add to the tone of the poem?

  9. Sound Devices • Turn to p.654, “Weather” • Let’s read the poem together. • What do you notice about the sound of the poem? • Let’s analyze: how does onomatopoeia add to the mood of the poem?

  10. Replacements • Now that we’ve discussed onomatopoeia, turn back to “Sarah Cynthia…” on p.650. • We want to remove the ending rhymes and add onomatopoeia instead: • Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout • Would not take the garbage out! • She’d scour the pots and scrape the pans, • Candy the yams and spice the hams,

  11. Replacements • We want to remove the ending rhymes and add onomatopoeia instead: • Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout • Would not, stamp stomp, take out the garbage out! • She’d scourscratch off the panspots and scrape out the pans pots, • Candy the yams and shake, shake, shake spices onto the hams meats,

  12. Replacements—together • Let’s work together to remove the ending rhymes and to add onomatopoeia for the next few lines: • And though her daddy would scream and shout, • She simply would not take the garbage out. • And so it piled up to the ceilings: • Coffee grounds, potato peelings,

  13. Your Turn is coming up… • In just a moment, I want you to get with your 4:00 partner and finish as much of the poem on p.650 as you can in 10 minutes: • Remove the ending rhymes. • Add in examples of onomatopoeia I’d copy 4 lines, change them. Copy four lines, change them, etc. *Each partner needs his/her own copy

  14. Journal Discussion: Similarities and Differences • Compare and contrast rhyme scheme and onomatopoeia. • You may use a Venn diagram to organize your thoughts, but your final journal must be composed of • good sentences, • properly punctuated, and • organized into paragraphs.
