Objective: Today, we will practice grammar by editing and continuing to practice subject / verb agreement. We will review Langston Hughes', Mother to Son, make final analysis and determine the metaphor in the poem. You will then write your own metaphorical poem per the instructions provided.
Take out homework if not completed in class yesterday (letter)
Warm - up
1. Editing handout.
