Directions
For your poetry project you will be researching your assigned poet and poem in your computer lab groups. The websites to be used will be posted for you on Mrs. Sulentor’s website. After researching, you will create a powerpoint to present to the class. Working collaboratively, your powerpoint MUST include the following information:
-A title slide containing the names of your group members
-Life and death information about your poet
-Where he or she lived and went to school (if he or she went to school)
Working individually but within the same powerpoint presentation, you must include at least one poem for each member of your group (you will use the seven tips for reading poetry on p. 618-619 of your textbook and answer the questions about your poem).
