Dulce Seminar

WHEN OUT OF SEMINAR:

Starter 5:

1. Read someone else’s list of definitions.  Write down their name, and the topic they chose.
2. What is the most powerful/interesting definition?  What makes it powerful (this should be a substantial discussion, not just a sentence or two!)?
3. What definition would you add to this topic?  Write it, then explain why you chose the comparison you did, and what you were trying to illuminate with that comparison.

Poem Memorization Assignment

1. Read carefully over the assignment.
2. Find a partner, meet with them, and explain the assignment to them.  Clarify the assignment for each other.  If you have any remaining questions about the assignment, write them down!
3. Find a poem you would like to memorize!  Flip through the books, look on the internet, read poems until you find one that speaks to you.  If you find a poem that’s not on the list, jot down the title and the author to get Lori’s approval later.  Spend some time just exploring and looking at different poems!
4. If you choose one, start memorizing it!
