AP-12 Literature and Composition Poetry Voice Thread

For this assignment, each of you will have a poem to read, analyze, and illustrate. To complete this assignment, you are to create a PowerPoint with an embedded Voice Thread, and house it on a Wiki. The requirements are as follows:
 * 1) Read and analyze the poem by completing a TPCASTT. You will use criticism to help you with this; therefore, you must have an MLA Work Cited with at least 3 citations as the last slide of your PowerPoint
 * 2) As you orally read the poem on Voice Thread, have slides on the PowerPoint with only visuals (no words) representing the poem. The slides with visuals will move as you read the poem. Note: To make the slides move without hesitation, change the default to zero.
 * 3) At the end of the reading the poem, have a slide or slides showing the poem in written form.
 * 4) On this slide or slides showing the written poem, analyze it by reading a script. You may use your TPCASTT to help you write this script.
 * 5) Your script must be submitted to Turnitin.com and be no more than 30% plagiarized.
 * 6) ** Also while you are explaining your analysis of the poem, use the marker option on Voice Thread to mark or highlight the part of the poem you are discussing. **
 * 7) Create a Wiki page on our site with the title of the poem, author, image of the author, and a live link to the Voice Thread. Note: to make it live, you have to have made the Voice Thread **public.**
 * 8) These poems will be presented to the class as daily starters for as many days as we have time.
