Getting Ready for Poetry English I

This week you will be bringing in some of your favorite songs to share with the class. You can bring your ipod or a CD. Be sure the songs are school appropriate. When you share a song with the class, you need to tell the class how the poetry uses figurative language, alliteration, rhyme, and rhythm. Most importantly you need to tell what the song means to you. Remember poetry and music are the same thing.
