(Mentor Text used for this session: "Draw" (by Amy Ludwig VanDerWater) (Please look for other classes in this series that focus on other mentor texts.) This course is based in Bernabei's writing methods. I enjoy a relaxed atmosphere with much discussion. Students should come to this course with basic understanding of the writing process, and a desire to gain positive experience in verbal expression. Students will write poetry inspired by classic and contemporary authors. This is not a foundational-level course, so students should be prepared to dig deeper than the basics of poetry. During our sessions, we will ... * have a quick-write designed to give the writer a basis for the poem he or she will create during the session; * share a mentor poem; * analyze the poem (considering its title, various craft points noted by students and teacher); * define the text structure of the poem (chunking the poem by purpose, topic, etc.); * discuss all finds and student perspectives during this process; * and allow individual students to write poems based on their quick-writes and the analysis of the mentor poem. Remember, we are all expanding our knowledge together (including the teacher). I'm looking forward to learning with you! Mrs. Rae Marie (M.Ed.) (Writing, Poetry, Fantasy Fiction, ACE Educator)
Learning Goals
Students will learn to recognize and define text structures, so that they can use them to capture and express their own poetic insights.
Other Details
Supply List
Learners should have paper and pencil in order to create their writing products. They may type and save into a document if they are already comfortable with that process. I'll supply the poem, vocabulary list, and other other needed materials for this class.
External Resources

Teacher expertise and credentials
Master's Degree in Education from LeTourneau University
I've taught reading and writing to multiple ages for several years, and I also have served as an instructional coach. I have a master's degree in Curriculum and Instruction, and another master's degree in Educational Leadership.
I absolutely love to write and share the joy of writing, and I've taught writing for several years. I understand that writing isn't everyone's cup of tea, so I am beyond happy to share some ways to bring your words to the surface. Oftentimes, it's just a matter of sorting out what's happening in your brain and getting it to come out in the right order. I'm here for you!
