I am out with a sick kiddo today. You will be completing a writing task for the poem we studied the other day: "Me up at does." If you need a copy, a quick Google search will lead you to it.
Read the poem again and consider all the different elements of structure function in the poem. Spend a few minutes brainstorming good theme statements with your group members. Then compose a robust paragraph that begins with the following sentence: In his poem "Me up at does," E.E. Cummings uses elements of structure to suggest [fill in with theme statement].
Your paragraph should include specific terms/techniques that relate to structure (syntax, stanzas, shift, etc.). It should also include quotations where appropriate. When you finish, please place it in the bin under the TV and use the rest of the hour to read.
