Today in class . . .
We wrote a found poem by searching/mining a few pages from our class novel for "golden nuggets" that we could arrange into a poem. This poem needed to represent one of the important themes from our book. The stages of writing this poem, in case you were absent, are these: Step 1: Choose a powerful excerpt (1-2 pages) from The Outsiders. Step 2: Mine/find 10 important phrases (2-6 words) from the book. Step 3: Arrange those phrases like a poem. A. Make the lines short. B. Add end punctuation for the end of each line. C. Add words or lines needed for it to make sense. Step 4: Write a compound sentence explaining what people should learn/think about after reading your poem. (This is the theme.)
