Next assignment—– go to this website—- www.poetryslam.com and read what slam poetry is all about–then please embed a video of someone performing a slam poem on your 10th grade lit page (AS I HAVE DONE BELOW). On youtube you can search through the “Def Poetry Slam” videos as a start- but there is plenty of other stuff out there to find. Remember as this is a school assignment please choose appropriate material and language (there is some that is certainly not appropriate for a school assignment) Below the video please leave a brief comment on why you chose this video- the performance?, the poem?, theme?, language? etc….
