Dividing by Tens

Reflection

I was working on dividing by tens.
It was easy because I already knew it from working in my group.

The more I practice, the quicker I will become.

My African Praise Poem

African Praise Poem.

How do I feel about myself?

The African culture is steeped in oral tradition, and the traditional way

for Africans to introduce themselves in a new situation.

IALT write a traditional Praise Poem, to introduce myself to the class.

Success Criteria:

I will explore the subject of African praise poetry,

I will take risks, and use imagery to reveal myself in poetic form.

I will follow the structure of a typical African Praise poem.

I will perform my poem to an audience, maybe using drums.

Structure:

Line 1 -       Introducing myself.

Line 2 –           Introduction to my family and heritage.
Line 3 -       Animal metaphor
Line 4 –       Nature metaphor
Line 5 –       Personality and Qualities
Chorus -          Refrain describing my talents, co-written by my peers.

My Reflection:  Publishing my poem on my blog was tricky but now I know how to do it.  Writing my poem was fun and challenging.  Next time I will try adding some alliteration.
