Reading- Unit 2 - "Journeys" - A Poetic Journey
We will continue our novel study of the book Love that Dog, by Sharon Creech. Love that Dog is a free verse poem written in a diary format. It is written from the perspective of a young boy who resists poetry assignments from his teacher. Throughout his journey, he learns to appreciate, and to even enjoy, the art of poetry. As we read this book, we will continue to examine the literary elements of poetry, and students will create their own poetry book.
English - Poetry
Students will do some work with the climate and plants of the southwest.
