Poetry Project
One of the final assignments you have this semester is to select and research a poet and his/her poems that interest you from either your textbook or the Internet and compile an multi-genre anthology of these poems. Ultimately, I see this as a research / analysis project: The main idea of this project is for you to select poems of personal interest and analyze these poems for meaning from ONE poet. The multi-genre component means that you will have free choice as to how you would like to narrate / organize this project. Included in this anthology are the following:
- A title page that includes a creative title, your name, English 10, and the due date: ________________
- An Table of Contents of the project (biographical information, poems, related information, etc.)
- A clear selection of poet as well as biographical information about the author
- At least SIX different poems
- A completed analysis for each poem
- Photos, drawings, news articles, quotes, etc that clearly relate to your poet / poetry (one per poem)
- A Works Cited page that includes any books or websites you may have used to find poetry
