A. First, fulfill these routine Friday duties:
1. So, we've just finished Week 4 of our reading. Total your bookmark for week 4, copy the beginning page numbers for your Week 5 book mark, and then hand your bookmark for week 4.
2. Complete this week's Currently post with page totals, best sentences, and a brief comment on your favorite.
B. Poet of the Month post. Select one of the following options for our Poet of the Month menu:
1. Name the three poems we have read so far this year that have been the most interesting to you and write 75 words about what made them stand out for you personally.
2. Pick your poet of the year so far and try to find more work by them at the Poetry Foundation's amazing web site. You may either (a) find one poem by them there to copy into your moleskine, or (b) write 50 words about one of the poems you found there that interests you for whatever reason.
C. Overtime
If have time, for the last 15 minutes of class, start looking for a subject for your solo close-reading assignment, which is due Tuesday. Alternatively, write a response post for your independent reading, or silent read.
