As we continue with our work reading and analyzing poems, I think it would be helpful if I posted the link to the page we have been visiting a lot, www.poemhunter.com
Here you can find a lot of famous (and lesser known) poets' work along with their biographies. Get online, pick a poem, and take some time out of your day to really appreciate the words and phrases that make a good poem come alive!
Also, I encourage everyone to keep reading outside of class, (remember your book reports are due October 30th) and with reading in mind I'll leave you with an article about a woman who is trying to read a book a day for an entire year! I challenge you to try and do 10% of that!!
