Activities & Assignments

PP: Latin Root

The instructor will share a prompt asking students to create a review of the white house poetry slam. The instructor will then introduce a few new videos of the poetry jam for students to take notes to. Videos will be presented on Google Classroom. 

The instructor will lead a discussion on news publication styles. We will discuss what exactly a review of the poetry jam will look like and brainstorm publication names and strategies. 

Students will then be tasked with creating their own publications reviewing several performances of the jam. This will be a multi day project and evaluated for both its writing and its presentation!
