So for the first day of presentations, it was poetry. I think they did a great job explaining how to understand poetry a little bit better. I was kind of confused at some points but I thought I got an overall understanding of their presentation better. During their activity, they broke down, and told us to write words that we think of when we are about to take a bath. This helped me to look at poetry in a different way, a much more simple way than I have been usually taught. Overall, this first presentation was pretty good.
For the second group of the day, they were almost perfect. The group talked about creative writing, and preventing writers block, within the classroom. Their ignite talk was really well thought out, clear, and did a great job explaining their topic. The activity they did was by far my favortie, going on a vacation. Each group was given a different climate and we had specific questions we had to answer while going on the trip. I found it to be an extremely fun and creative way to help creative writing. I cannot wait until I can use this in a classroom for my own students. It is a fun and easy way you can get students brain flowing, and prevents any potential writing struggles.
