Today we worked on marking out the meter of a poem. We used the poem on the bottom of the page from yesterday's blog entry (you can download it on the entry below). I made a video of how to go about marking the meter in a poem. To see the video, click here. It will take you to a website called Screencast which should allow you to watch the video. If it works (or not), please let me know (keasling.anne@slpschools.org).
