Continue Poetry Study – “Hoods” 10:55 – 11:30 “Hoods” is a poem from Brickyard Summer – a book of poems by a narrator who is never named. Always take the narrator of a poem to be separate from the author unless and until you discover otherwise!

Let’s have a CLOSE READING, and get to know the poem! Action - Reaction The narrative begins with an action and a reaction, which leads to another action. Did you notice?

On a sheet of paper create a flow chart similar to the one below. Write the initial action of the poem in the first box. In the box to the right, write in a reaction that comes from the initial action. Fill in the other boxes with similar actions and reactions.

Action – Reaction Examples! Action: At the start of the poem, the narrator spots the boys breaking into a car Reaction: Spider sends his accomplices after the narrator Reaction: The narrator flees to the reference room of the public library, where he observes the danger lurking on the street. Action: The gang’s leader arrives to draw them away. Reaction: The narrator basks in the satisfaction of having eluded the “hoods,” with a further bonus that he can brag to his best friend, Raymond.

Noticing Plot Although “Hoods” has only two stanzas, there are a few turning points in the narrative action Each one begins with the narrator telling what he did next: I bounded away, I climbed, I watched, I waited. Each phrase propels the narrator into a new stage of his escape.

Plot Line – a story line Rising Action Line Climax Peak Falling Action Line Where would the four turning points mentioned above fall on the plot line? I bounded away, I climbed, I climbed, I watched, I watched, I waited

Constructive & Destructive Forces on Landforms

Constructive Forces

Destructive Forces ities/?city=grand-canyon ities/?city=grand-canyon

Two Types of Forces Destructive Forces: processes that destroy landforms. – 2 types: Slow (weathering) and Fast (Erosion) – Ex. landslides, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, floods Constructive forces: forces that build up an existing landform or create a new one. – Caused by: water, gravity, wind and glaciers. – Ex: deposition, landslides, volcanic eruptions, floods

Weathering Weathering: a slow, destructive force that breaks rocks into smaller pieces called sediments. Can by physical (mechanical) or chemical. Keywords: wear down, break apart Weathering Pictures

Mechanical weathering: the breaking of rock into smaller pieces by forces due to gravity, ice, plant roots, or other physical forces.

Chemical Weathering: the changing of materials in a rock by chemical processes.

Erosion Erosion: the destructive movement of materials away from one place by wind, water, ice and gravity. Wave Erosion- caused by water Wind Erosion (Dust Storm) Grand Canyon Video

Landslides Landslides: occur when gravity quickly pulls rock and dirt downhill.

Floods Floods: a great flow of water over an area that is usually dry land.

Volcanic Eruptions Volcano: an opening in the Earth’s crust through which steam, lava and ashes erupt. Cause both destructive and constructive changes to landforms.

Mount St. Helens Saint Helen’s Before Saint Helen’s After Mount St. Helens Video

Volcanoes can be constructive, but also destructive…

Earthquakes Earthquakes: the shaking of Earth’s surface caused by the release of energy along a fault. San Andreas Fault, California

Volcanoes & Earthquakes Tectonic Plates, Volcanoes & Earthquakes

Erosion & Deposition Deposition: the placing of materials in a new place (constructive force). Ex. Sandbars

Water Erosion & Deposition River Delta - Deposits of sediment at the mouth of the Mississippi River creating new land called a delta.

Wind Erosion & Deposition Sand Dunes- sand is moved by wind Desert Sand Dunes Ocean Sand Dunes

Group Project! Task Your teacher will place you in a group with two or three other students who will co-author a presentation on constructive and destructive forces. In your research you will identify ways in which the forces factor in shaping the earth's surface. After completing your research you will choose to create either a Tornado in a Bottle or an Erupting Volcano at home. Tornado in a BottleErupting Volcano First Things First! – Assemble groups and choose constructive or destructive force (based on your teachers requirements)
