Poetry and Anne Frank

I started a poetry unit with the 9th graders. When Susan saw that poetry was one of the topics to be discussed after I left, she kinda cringed. So I told her I would work with them on it. We lost 8 students. They are going to Sweetwater high school. The class will be a little quieter, which is good. However, some of those students were funny and I'll miss them.

The 8th graders finished scene 5 in act II of Anne Frank. I then played the video for them. One thing I hate though is when they keep nagging me about watching the video.
