__ **Unit 3: Poetry ** __ Cornell Notes for poetry unit:   

__ **Activity 1: ** __ From [|Poetry Out Loud: Listen]. Listen to the 'The Good-Morrow' by John Dunne, read by David Mason, and Kay Ryan remembers her grandmother. Once you've listened to both, answer the questions.

__ **Activity 2: ** __ After we've brainstormed different practical ways poetry could be used in real life situations, you'll create 5 note cards: Side one: situation where poetry where would be effective Side two: verse that would be appropriate for the situation - poems should come from [|here]

__ **Activity 3: ** __ You will pick a poem from [|here] that somehow relates to your views on life. Here is what you will do with that poem. - Memorize it - Recite it to the class using proper tone, meter, and tempo. You will project the poem and be able to reference it if you get stuck. You absolutely should not stand up and read it to the class word for word. - Tell why you chose it and how it relates to you <span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 19.5px;">__Resources__: <span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 19.5px;">[|Video how-to's and examples of poetry recitals here] <span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 19.5px;">[|Your chosen poem needs to come from here]
