Assignment:
Today the students shared their concrete poems (journal #6) in groups.
They can publish these on my walls if they choose to by rewriting them on typing paper.
We looked at the author Langston Hughes and I had them take some notes about the Harlem Renaissance before we read the poem "Harlem Night Song".
The students have a quiz tomorrow over everything that we have covered with poetry up to yesterday in class.
