YA Author Meet & Greet
This document summarizes an event for a YA author meet and greet. The event will take place on February 8, 2015 at 7pm at the Peninsula Public Library. The author, Nicole A. Schmidt, will discuss her background in education and traveling, as well as her recently published book of poems titled "Inside a Young Soul" that were written between the ages of 14-19. The event will include an introduction to Schmidt, information about her book, a Q&A session, a poetry workshop where attendees can write their own poems, and opportunities to stay connected with Schmidt online after the event.
Sentences
This document discusses the four sentence types - declarative, interrogative, imperative, and exclamatory. It provides examples of what types of sentences would be found in different texts like instruction manuals, advertisements, conversations, and more. It then instructs the reader on an activity to identify sentence types and how they relate to audience. Finally, it outlines the major and minor types of sentences and provides examples.
Concrete Poems
Concrete poems take the form of their subject, where the text is arranged in the shape suggested by its theme. The document provides instructions for writing a concrete poem, starting with choosing a theme and shape, then writing the poem without considering shape. Students then draw the chosen shape with pencil and arrange the written poem within the lines. Photos or other decorations can be added to enhance the shaped poem. The goal is to improve students' writing skills and engage them with literature in a creative way.
Are you in love?
This document discusses the differences between falling in love and having a crush. It notes that love develops gradually over time while infatuation occurs suddenly. Love accepts the imperfections of one's partner, focuses on more than just physical attraction, improves one's mood, and can withstand arguments, whereas infatuation is based on an idealized image and focuses only on physical attraction, is draining, and glosses over arguments. The document instructs students to describe what happens when one falls in love compared to having a crush, using the grammatical structure of "if + subject + simple present + future with will, may, or might."
Shape poems (1)
Shape poems take the shape of their subject. The document provides examples of shape poems in the shapes of hearts, houses, animals, and more. It then explains how to write a shape poem by choosing a topic that can be depicted in a shape, drawing the shape outline, and arranging words within the shape. Students are challenged to create their own original shape poem to present to the class. The poem must relate to the drawn shape and follow specific criteria to be graded.
Transportation
The document discusses different modes of transportation such as biking, taking the bus, driving, and riding the train. It provides examples of conversations between Ashley and Jason where they discuss how Jason gets to school by bus and how Ashley's mother takes the train to work. Vocabulary and activities are also included to help readers learn and practice transportation terms.
