5/3 [TU] - Poetry Scrapbook Read Arounds

* Sorry.  Been unable to update for quite some time.  We're back now.

I.  POETRY SCRAPBOOK READ AROUND
    - Multicultural Novel Poetry Scrapbooks were due yesterday

    A.   Discuss:  How did you think you did?  Explain.  What grade do you expect?  Why?

     B.  Review/Check out other Poetry Scrapbooks
           - look at, peruse, discuss, think about what you did versus what other people did

     C.  READ ENDNOTES
           - start with the conclusion first and then go to the start of each endnote
           - how specific are students?  how clear?  What details are included?
           - how does it flow?  do you get a sense of what that person did exactly?
           - can you see images and steps in your head or is the endnote to vague/general?

      D.   READ INTRODUCTIONS
           - Same process as above; get a feel for what people did; think about what you wrote
           - Is the intro just a rehash of the plot OR does it include personal experiences/reactions?

II.  ASSESS POETRY SCRAPBOOKS (not your own)
      - use checklist to see if the element or device is there
      - TRY to find the elements; take note of ways in which student organization made
         your assessment easier
