Find a poem by Al Purdy online, at the library, or from ms. Price.
Once you have chosen a poem (not studied in class), you have two options:
1. Write a commentary on the poem using SCALI. You should include a dominant impression in place of a thesis statement. 1000 words. Using rubric for IOC.
2. Make a dramatic reading with a video montage to post on YouTube. You may have up to 3 people in your group for the making of the video. You will need to hand in individual statements of intent to go with your video. A statement of intent explains how you demonstrated an understanding of poetic devices featured in the poem through your video (choice of images, angles, lighting, music, etc.). 500 words. Using rubric for WL 2.
Due next Thursday.
