11.14 - Poem Storyboards

At the beginning of class today, everyone had several minutes to practice reciting their poem with a partner. Following this, everyone had about ten minutes to share and proof-read their "Salt Water Tones" essay response.

Next, everyone created a story board for images in their poem as a way to help interpret and visualize the poem. This series of visual images will also help people to memorize their poem (see below for instructions and an example).
