Wednesday, March 16

Do-Now: Who/what is an inspiration to you in your life?  How has this person/thing changed your life?  How does this person/thing inspire you to make other changes to your life?  Why is this person/thing so important to you?  How do you show your appreciation to this person/thing?


Today: First, we will talk about the importance of having a muse while writing.  Each of you will select someone/something to be your own personal muse for the rest of the semester.  You will use this muse for inspiration to write today's sonnet.  We will read a few examples of modern sonnets written in Shakespeare's form, then you will compose your own.


Homework: Finish your sonnet.
