Today we are continuing our learning on poetry. Here is our agenda:
- Literary Devices Warm-Up - in the Chapter 6 folder in Canvas
- Review Paul Revere storyboards
- Continue working on "My Mother Pieced Quilts" and "Junkards."
- Introduce epic poetry with "Beowulf"
In addition, here are a couple links you might be interested in.
- This is the TRUE story of Paul Revere. It's very short. The poem we read is not entirely true, though he did ride through many towns at the beginning of the American Revolution. You can even seen a map of the route!
- The Mingei International Museum in Balboa Park has a special exhibition until July that focuses on quilts. If your interested in the quilting process or want to see some amazing examples, check it out.
