 * Read: Self Portrait Poem by Tove Ditlesven **

Analyze as a class: focus on the details she gives that hide larger stories. She doesn't come out and tell us she's shy or anxious, she shows us. Work to integrate similar detail into your writing.

Self Portrait Poem Assignment: (I have models if you would like to see one)

HW: Write in planner: Full rough draft of your poem due in class next time I see you. You don't need to have the visuals yet, but you can start.
