In this program students will:
● Review essential terminology and concepts around poetry.
● Watch a video performance by poet Jennifer Cendaña Armas performing her poem “Interview with Anne Carson Interviewing Hara Tamiki”
● Reflect on their reaction to the poem, and write a poem independently or in collaboration with a classmate
● Recite their individual or joint poems, depending on comfort level
