BELLWORK Please wait silently for instructions. We have a lot we need to get through today, and the process will only go smoothly if you are quiet and pay attention! Schedule: • Registration for classes next year • Haiku Introduction • Disney song poetry
Registration I am going to hand you your class selection sheet. Please keep a few things in mind: • You must select what type of future you are headed toward. • You will have to first select the CORE CLASSES that you must take to graduate. • You must then pick 8 electives. Your schedule will be determined based on how electives can be scheduled around core classes and/or Remedial Classes
PLANNER: HOMEWORK Please finish pages 10 and 25 of your Poetry Packet.
Haikus • We are going to talk, first, about the basic format of a haiku • A haiku only has three lines- it never has any more than that! • It is a short way to pack a big punch with words • In haikus, there are also rules in terms of syllables • Let’s do some syllable practice!
Syllables • 1. How many syllables does your name have? • My name is Madison, so… • Mad-i-son • My name has three syllables • Clap and count out your own name! • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zMrPvsYRgXA
Haikus • Now that we have a grasp on syllables, we can start to grasp the format of the haiku • The haiku has three lines • The first line has 5 syllables • The second line has 7 syllables • The third line has 5 syllables
Haikus • And, I’m going to show you a fun, foolproof way that you can always make sure your haikus are in the right form • You can sing it out! • Let’s watch an example: • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SqNLJuy28BU&t=31s
Haikus • Now, this was a comedic way to write haikus, but it really was effective! • The song works in helping to write haikus and to see if it fits in the form- I can’t write haikus without this song!
Haikus • Let’s take a few minutes to all write a haiku, and I will play the song in the background to help you • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SqNLJuy28BU&t=31s • In a few minutes, a few of you will give me your examples, and we will all sing them together
Now... • I will give you themes in which to write your haikus about • You will take a few minutes for each theme • On Friday, your group will submit two haikus to be put on our writing website, which I will link to on our website for you to see over the weekend!
Theme One Please write a haiku about what you see outside of my window.
Theme Two Please write a haiku about an object in this room.
