Description

Class Experience

In this one-time class students will learn about found poetry and will create their own. We will investigate forms such as the cut-up, black-out, and golden shovel. We will use games, prompts, and both collaborative and individual exercises to write found poetry. By the end of the class, learners will have a better understanding of found poems and how to create them, and will have written several poems. Learners will receive additional writing prompts at the end of class so they can continue...

A handout will be provided to learners. Learners will also need to bring to class paper, scissors, glue or tape, a dark marker (Sharpies work great) and old magazines/newspapers/books/junk mail they can write on and cut up.

Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.

55 minutes per week in class, and maybe some time outside of class.
