Due 11/2 CRLS Reflection Essay

All senior English students must turn in their CRLS reflection essay as part of their English class. For AP English, you will receive points (as a completion assignment) for turning in your essay on time. Make sure to provide specific evidence per paragraph and then explain HOW these pieces of evidence show that you have demonstrated that particular skill. (This is actually similar in concept to a poetry analysis paper).


Please use the following documents as guides for your essay:

Due 10/23 Original Poem

Remember to bring your original poem to class for our Fun with Poetry Day! No, you do not have to share your poem with other people. You DO have to remember to include a minimum of a 1/2 page analysis of your own original poem. You can even refer to yourself in the third person if you really get into it.
