1. Warming up with three good things, our Valentine of the Day, and a recommitment to our classroom as a screen-free zone
2. Enjoying James Galvin's "Left Handed Poem"
- Find one line with unusual syntax or an unusual line break.
- Try rewriting it in a way that makes it more "usual."
- What did it lose?
- What makes this poem "left-handed"?
4. Reflecting on the process: How did writing with your non-dominant hand affect your writing? Did it affect your syntax? Line breaks? Other?
HW:
1. For TUESDAY: Finish Part 2 and create your Socratic ticket. This will be a very important Socratic over all of Part 2, so please make every effort to be caught up.

3. FRIDAY: Read through the first half of Part 3 (to about page 110); create your ticket for our Socratic.
