Week 11

Poetry Slam

I thought that the poetry slam was very interesting. It is a good way to let students have a way to speak their minds freely. A lot of slam poetry also touches on really tough issues.  This would be a good to incorporate into a lesson plan because you really can't have mistakes. as long as you convey your message through spoken word. The second part of the poetry slam was helpful to see that you can use many different medias for poetry but I think I was lost in the meaning of the actual poem.  however, it was very entertaining and I think that things like slam poetry can have a place in classroom lesson plans.
