11.19 - Poetry Out Loud Recitation Practice

Today's class was focused on practicing recitations for Poetry Out Loud. Everyone worked with a partner to practice reciting their poem. We used feedback and the standards on the Poetry Out Loud rubric to focus both improvements and feedback on qualities that will be assessed tomorrow.

Towards the end of class, we took time to review class performance for the six paragraph TED Talk essay and the Salt Water Tones writing assignment (see below for feedback).
