Objective: Students will compose poems about lost friendships/relationships.
Do-Now: Think about all the friendships/relationships in your life that have ended. Which one affected you the most? Who was it with? Why did it end? What was your friendship/relationship like before it ended? Why did it affect you so much once it was over? What is your friendship/relationship like now that it has ended? What would you like to tell that person if you could speak with them today?
Agenda: Today we will read two poems entitled "Practically Triplets" and "Call Me." Both poems are about friendships that have ended and how the author views that person now. You will be composing your own poem about the friendship/relationship you wrote about in your Do-Now. Focus your poem on what the friendship/relationship was like in the past, compared to what it is like today.
Homework: Finish your poem.
