Publishing Day!

Aim: How do we self-evaluate and publish our "Where I'm From" poems?

Do Now: In your journals which you should have by now, write a well-organized paragraph evaluating your poem, supporting your opinion with specific and relevant evidence. Even if you have not turned in your poem, you must respond to this journal prompt.

Note: Each Journal entry must have the date, journal prompt #, and title.

It's Publishing Day! All of your hard work will result in "Where I'm From" books created by you and containing all of the student-created poems.

Students are required to have journals by Monday.
