11.18 - Poetry Out Loud Assessment

At the beginning of class today, everyone had time to practice their poem. I then handed out copies of the Poetry Out Loud assessment rubric that we will be using (see below).

We reviewed the rubric together as a class and then used it to assess various Poetry Out Loud performances. This review was intended to help people plan their own recitation through a better understanding of the Poetry Out Loud assessment rubric and what works in terms of recitation styles.

Some good videos to check out include:
