Day 1 Subject and verb agreement Use of commas to set off appositives Elimination of you without a clear antecedent The number and types of beats in a line determine a poem's meter, its rhythmic pattern. Counting and marking the stressed and unstressed syllables in each line, a process called scanning, allows a reader to identify a poem's meter. Use of commas to set off appositives

Day 2 Correction of faulty subordination Elimination of commas with restrictive clause Use of comma to indicate words omitted in a parallel phrase Modern poetry that is called free verse does not have a regular meter. Scanning a poem, that is written in meter, involves marking each stressed syllable with an accent; each unstressed syllable with a breve.

Day 2 Correction of faulty subordination Elimination of commas with restrictive clause Use of comma to indicate words omitted in a parallel phrase Modern poetry that does not have regular meter is called free verse. Scanning a poem that is written in meter involves marking each stressed syllable with an accent, each unstressed syllable with a breve.

Day 3 Streamlining sentence with the use of the possessive Correct use of colon before a list Use of commas with nonrestrictive appositives The meter of a poem is identified with a vertical line dividing the stressed and unstressed syllables into groups called poetic feet. Two common types of poetic feet are: the iamb a stressed syllable followed by an unstressed one, and the trochee an unstressed syllable followed by a stressed one.

Day 3 Streamlining sentence with the use of the possessive Correct use of colon before a list--do not use after a verb Use of commas with nonrestrictive appositives A poem's meter is identified with a vertical line dividing the stressed and unstressed syllables into groups called poetic feet. Here are two types of poetic feet: the iamb, a stressed syllable followed by an unstressed one, and the trochee, an unstressed syllable followed by a stressed one.

Day 4 Subject and verb agreement Use of hyphens with compound modifiers Use of quotation marks with the title of a poem The number of feet in a line determine the meter; trimeter is written in three foot lines, tetrameter in four foot lines, and so on. For an example of a poem written in iambic pentameter--five iambs per line--look at An Essay on Man by Alexander Pope.

Day 5 Use of dashes to set off interrupter that already contains commas Subject and verb agreement Elimination of double negative Semicolon and comma and a conjunctive adverb to correct run-on sentence Common measure, the popular meter found in ballads, hymns, nursery rhymes and cheers, alternate four-foot lines and three-foot lines. The rhythm of hardly no poem fits a meter exactly, indeed, departure from the meter is often a way to achieve a poetic affect. Correction of commonly confused words
