HOMEWORK:

Work on your poetry book.  The complete book is due on Tuesday, May 21st!  Add your finishing touches to your book.  Remember to have the following:

1. All your poems written out neatly.  Go over the words in ink to finish them off.  Label each poem with the kind of poem it is.  (Lantern, Quatrain, Part of Speech)
2. Illustrate your poems.  Each page should have a picture or decoration that enhances your poem.
3. Finish coloring your front and back cover.  Be sure that you have the name of your book and your full name (first and last) on the cover.
4. Dedication page (on the inside of the cover) - Dedicate your book to whoever has influenced, inspired or loves you!
5. Title page - 1st page of book.  Include your title and your full name.
6. About the Author - Include a short biography about you.  Give details about your life like where and when you were born, school, family, likes, activities, future career. 

There should be several empty pages in the back.  You can either leave them blank, add more poems, or decorate them in a creative way.  Use your imagination!!

Have a GREAT weekend!!
