Tomorrow, I will return your fourth poem. Ensure that you have had all four poems edited by me as you must submit your good copies and all of your drafts on Friday.
Create a cover page for you manuscript. No image is needed but you need a title for your poems. Imagine that your poems were ready to be a book of poems. What would you want it to be called?
Often book titles reflect a title of a poem or a line from one of the poems.
You can call it
- Poems To Be Read by Flashlight
- Walking in the Rain
- Best Grade 10 Poems of the Year
- Four, Four, Four
- Poems In Training
- They Don't Grow Oranges in Heaven Anymore
Choose a title that you think reflects your work.
Next week we will be turning poems into film. Choose one partner to work with. Choose a poem that one of you has written or choose one of the starred poems from your manuscript to turn into a film.
Start collecting high definition photos of your own or from the internet that you think could reflect your poem. When you search for photos. Click large under the size. Look for it on the sidebar of the google images search.
Have a look at these poetry films.
