Daily Warm Up for Tuesday, January 4

1. Write down your homework.

2. Write down your vocab.

3. Get your journal. You will be writing in it. Write today's date at the top.

4. Go to www.poets.org

5. Browse the poems for a few minutes, then settle on one poem. Read it carefully -- at least 2 times!

6. In your journal, write the title of the poem and the name of the poet, then write at least 5 sentences responding to the poem. Did it include any of the techniques we've studied so far? Why did you pick this poem? Are there things about it that you like or dislike?

7. If you finish before the rest of the class, read some other poems on the site.
