Class 1 (7/07-7/11): Poetry for Rising 9th-12th graders

Students in this class will develop their craft and explore poetry as correspondence through reading and writing epistolary poems. With a focus on imagery, sound, and structure, they will experiment with writing in a range of poetic styles including prose poems and sonnets, as well as with creating poems from their own or others’ letters.  They will receive granular and developmental feedback on their creative work, personalize a revision process, and build community with fellow students.
