POETRY BOOK ASSIGNMENTFor this assignment, you will be working on your very own poetry book with poems that you have written yourself. Each of your poems will follow a common theme, provide a rationale (explanation as to why you chose that theme to talk about), and an explanation for each of your poems. At the end of this assignment, you will recite one of your poems by memory, record it, and upload it to a FlipGrid assignment. All students must use Google Docs to work on this poetry book through the Google Classroom assignment, this way I can check your progress throughout the process to make sure that you are on task.

***Please be warned that any student who tries to cheat or copy a poem from online and is caught will receive a “Z” for all assessment grades associated with this assignment. ***

This project will be worth the following:

• Progress checks up until the day that the project is due
  • 3 assessment grades for the completed poetry book
