Upper Grammar Writing - poem this week

Post by EricaS »

It has been such a delight to have time with your students. It truly is an incredible class.

I hope the reports this time are going well. It is a little more than we have done before, but I tried to get them off to a good start in class.

You, of course, are welcome to take it any direction you like :) and ask me questions at any time. My goal for this time was they would have a rough draft that I can give them comments on, then for next co-op they will finalize their reports and begin work on their story (outline and rough draft - see next paragraph).

I am working on the syllabus for the next quarter. We are going to write a story. They may go completely original if they like, but in class we will talk about imitation of a fable or myth. We will outline one and talk about ways they could vary it, etc. They may use the one we do in class or chose another. I believe Margaret is planning on them making a book cover for the story they write, so you may want to help them pick something you would like to keep for awhile :)

And one last thing - just fyi, we are planning to recite our poem together at the opening next meeting (TOG 5). It is going to be so much fun!
