DO NOW (IN YOUR WRITING SECTION) Today is September 11, 2015 (fourteen years since the Twin Towers and the Pentagon were attacked) In the next 5-10 minutes, reflect on this incident. You might answer: What do you already know about this event? Do you have any personal stories or connections to it? What are your thoughts/feelings? How does this affect us as a country today? Or, write about anything else that you feel is meaningful and related to this topic.

NARRATIVE POETRY (CONTINUE IN WRITING SECTION) Narrative is another name for story. A narrative poem is a poem that tells a story. Write your own narrative poem inspired by 9/11. You might write about… The attacks themselves Tragedy, more generally Revenge Being grateful for your friends/family/life/freedom Or anything else that you feel is meaningful and related Poems should be at least 10 lines long and they do not need to follow any rhyme/rhythm pattern, unless you would like them to

Possible ways to start a narrative poem: I was walking down the street when all of a sudden… When my mom turned on the t.v., I couldn’t believe what my eyes were seeing… The last time I spoke to him, his cell phone was cutting out. All I heard was… Examples of non-narrative poem starters… The horror, the madness, who could be so cruel?... Two buildings, so tall and proud. Two symbols of our country’s… A day that lives in infamy. A day we’ll never forget…
