Throughout the school year, I will post questions here. Answer them thoroughly and honestly. Always proofread before publishing. Happy blogging!
As we finish up our research unit, we want you to express what you've learned about your topic in a different genre. For this week's blog post, write a poem that is focused on your social justice activist research. You could write the poem in the voice of your activist, about the social justice issue he/she faced, or highlight important details from your research.
Be sure that your poem is at least ten lines long and includes at least one example of figurative language (metaphor, simile, personification, etc). Want an extra challenge? Use a vocabulary word in your poetry!
