Due on 5/12/11:
* Reading for Reading Log: 30 minutes daily.
* Memorize your poem(s) for recitation, if you have not already done so.
* Write in your journal at least once per day. Use first person. If you address an audience at all, it should be God.
* Finish/repair your ballad. Remember to incorporate the theme for your age group and to use the following (see handout for more explanation):
+ Ballads are narrative. They tell a story.
+ Use either ABCB or ABAB rhyme scheme.
+ Use quatrain (four-line stanzas).
+ Lines 1 and 3 are iambic tetrameter (four iambs: S-L rhythmic feet).
+ Lines 2 and 4 are iambic trimeter (three iambs: S-L rhythmic feet).
* Be reviewing for your poetry re-test.
