Inside -Outside Poem - Help

Now isn't this a challenging poem to write...or is it? - Read below for help getting started...

Inside/Ouside poem about yourself. (Due: Fri)

Don't make your poem more complicated than it needs to be...Think about the assignment for a second... all i'm asking you to do is write a poem about yourself. Now...going a bit further...i'm suggesting ways you can go about doing this by using categories...for example.. write about your personality, your dreams, your fears, your weaknesses etc etc... by thinking about categories gives you a way to organize your thoughts... so the next step is ... how do you do that...???

well why not begin by just writing about yourself in a literal way...
What do others think of you?

They think... all i enjoy writng and i a super students...
your poetry might soon like...

outside 
A test taking machine some may suggest
Fear of failure is why I strive my best

inside

I think... ..i like doing art....

(how can i do that in a poetic and/or figurative way..?)

Drawing and mixing paints brightens my days
Being artistic and creative in countless ways


Hope this helps!

Maya S. said...

Well it says review in the title, but above 7.11 is says study link.

Maya S. said...

Nick- The poem is about yourself, not a fruit. I think the fruit was for practice in class.

zmash said...

Nick the fruit poem we did not finish it yet

Camille B. said...

I think Mr. Buxton put that first video by mistake or he put the wrong one,and Maya why were you not here today?


READ NICK
First nick forget about the fruit were done with that, and yes we started to write a poem about a fruit but we don't need it any more. But we do need to write a poem about our self on the outside and on the inside. AND IF YOU COME TOMORROW YOU NEED TO DO THE SONG INTERPRETATION PRESENTATION.

Nick said...

Funny Nick.

Maya -
Tomorrow our final draft of the script is due. It has to be written nicely or typed up, but either way, it has to go on our index card.

Nick -
Forget about the fruit poems. They were just an example for the poem about us.

Mr. Buxton -
When you said this was going to be hard, I thought you were talking about the 'hard' that you meant for our animotos. I guess not...

Maddy Z said...

Maya -
The script for the GATE Math Fair.

In one of the NOUN things, I put 'the farmers' tractors' and they marked it wrong because it was just 'farmers' tractors' without the 'the'.

Aditya.k said...

Han said...

Mr.BUxton wouldn't this sentence be wrong...

The children's rooms are upstairs.

There are more than 1 child so wouldn't it be

The childrens' rooms are upstairs.

berrysweetπ said...

yeah, they do that, even if you add extra space. they are a real stickler about that.

AJDForTheFuture said...

Students 1-4, Remember the song interpretation is tomorrow.

Maddy Z said...

This is a great nouns video and you can take the quiz at the end to test yourself:
http://www.brainpop.com/english/grammar/nouns/

Mr. Buxton -
That video didn't mention 'collective nouns' but it did mention something called a 'concrete noun', which is apparently the opposite of an 'abstract noun'. So you can feel/touch/see it.

AJDForTheFuture said...

Thanks Maddy, that video helped.

Maya S. said...

Han- Because "children" doesn't end in "s", you would write " 's" not " s' "

Maya S. said...

Maddy- When you wrote your comment, you wrote "tractors' " not "tractors"
(If you can't tell the difference, the first one has an apostrophe, the second one doesn't)

berrysweetπ said...

Maya- what about the student council folder?

Han said...

Maddy- thks video really helped

Maya- Thanks as well I now understand better


Good night everyone! ;)
