The Elders are Watching & Connection to Place

  • Acknowledgement
  • Poetry re-test
  • Connection to Place and Land in Poetry
  • Chief Seattle made a speech to US Congress in 1854, right before he was forced to sign over the title to his land his ancestors had resided on for generations and then having to move onto a government created reserve.  In this amazing speech, he eloquently describes his relationship with the land, water, sky, and animals and foreshadows his concerns for the future.
  • Now let’s watch the video of this amazing poem “The Elders Are Watching” written by David Bouchard and illustrated by Roy Henry Vickers.  Write down the good and bad things.
  • What is the message? Is it all doom and gloom?
  • Remainder of class to work on Spoken Word
