LMS Homework for 4 April 2013

Please read the instructions carefully and follow them to the letter. This is the LMS homework I had set my class in 2012. I would like you to do this as well to begin our journey into poetry in Wk 3.

Instructions:

This is homework on poetry-out-loud.

1. Listen carefully to the poem "Brother" by Sarah Kaye and write a short 100- word paragraph on what the poem means to you.

2.Create  your own media file about someone close to you or whom you admire. It could also be about your friend in class :) It should be about 2-3  minutes. You can use the free software for video and slide at this site http://animoto.com/.

3. Before you decide to create your work, please write down the following notes on the PROCESS and CHOICES you make. You need to hand in these notes as well to describe the PROCESS of your work. answer the following questions.

a. Why did you choose a certain song? I suggest that you use intrumental music only as you do not want your audience to be distracted by the words of the song and forget your poem.However, you can make your own choice in this as well.

b. What are your reasons for the choice of slide or colour or even words?

4. I would use your work, your notes as well as your class's response to your work as part of your CA for Unseen .

5. ENJOY
