Every Friday, we take a look at the poem. Remember Digging by Seamus Heaney, Dream Deferred by Langston Hughes, and the Brown Season by Clea Roberts. How about We Real Cool by Gwendolyn Brooks and Nothing Gold Can Stay by Robert Frost. I choose some of these poems because they related in some way to the theme that we were discussing in the our books or they represented a slice of what was happening outside our doors such as springtime or simply because I love the way that they sound.
For Tuesday, I would like you to choose one of the poems which you really like and see if you can memorize all or part of it to recite to the class. Try a few lines and once you have those mastered, add a few more.
Any questions, come and see me in the library!
