We finished Louder than a Bomb yesterday; if you were absent, most of the poetry can be found on YouTube. Although all of the poetry is interesting, you'll really want to hear The Shooter by Lamar Jorden and Counting Graves by the Steinmenauts (this one makes me teary every time I hear it).
We'll be dissecting a couple of slam poems, so I handed out a list of terms to define or to find examples of. See me for that handout ASAP. It will be due on Tuesday as there is no school on Monday (to honor our veterans on Memorial Day).
