4. You have fivechoices, and you will have to write three poems. 1. Childhood Memorabilia Poem. 2. Portrait Poem. 3. American Dream Poem. 4. Change a Story to a Poem. 5. Eighth Grade Experience Poem.

5. Use the packet on the desk. It will show you the requirements for each poem. Pick one of the poems and write a poem today. When you finish, proofread it and edit it. If you don’t finish, it’s homework. If you want to listen to music and it’s not a distraction, go ahead. Please be respectful. I hate to see anyone have to sit in detention in June!
