“Poem a Day”
April 25, 2006
For the month of April, Poetry.com has been sending you a poem a
day. It was a requirement, that once you establish joining the
site, you should submit your responses for two poems per week for the
entire month of April. Some of you have forgotten, some are just
a little behind. Please submit responses online to equate to two
poems per week for April, which totals to 8 responses you must
have. Use the class time today, and complete the
assignments prior to the end of the grading period.
