Good Morning!
*Reminder: please remember that we will have a short story test on Tuesday October 6th.
*Looking back at yesterday: After knowing more about that Japanese internment and the author, what meaning does this add to the poem itself? Think about the lenses we have discussed.
*Here are some additional non-fiction articles to read through on The Japanese Internment. Please read through so we can discuss when I return.

*Analyzing Poems: you will be going through the analyzing poetry resource steps 1-7 and applying it to the three poems we studied: “Walking on two Sides of the Border”, “What do I remember of the Evacuation”, and “Caged Bird”. If you want to join up with a partner you are welcome to do so….
*if time…please work on a three way venn diagram looking at similarities and differences between these three poems. You can do this on your device, or on paper (and there is bigger paper at the front of the room).
