Attached you will find TWO documents
1. The Assignment
2. Poetry Packet

Please don't panic as you print out all these pages (18, I think). They should put these in their binders immediately, so they don't get out of order.

This is our first big poetry assignment, and we are covering lots of poets. I have printed most of the poems in a poetry packet to keep them from having to wrestle the Norton's as much. It is probably less overall reading than usual, but this reading will require a bit more thinking in order to grasp the ideas. The assignment questions are probably about the same, they are just spread out.

Please don't wait to start this assignment next week. It is very manageable if they go after it in smaller chunks over the two weeks.

Looking forward to hearing some creative sonnets for food prizes:)
