Both Classes - Non-negotiable
As discussed and agreed upon in class, when you return to school your personal poetry portfolio design of the front cover must be completed. Follow the instructions on the outline I provided you in class.

Class 421 you may also complete the table of contents as well since you are aware of the changes that we discussed in class. If you don't remember, it was about the change we agreed upon about the last two essay entries. Lastly, the drafts of your poems MUST be ready for review when you return to class. Most, if not all of you, have already begun this process in class, therefore, you should have something to review.

Class 419 you should hold off from completing the table of contents for now until we discuss the possible changes that may occur for the last two entries. If you completed it already, we can remedy this and discuss this in class. However, you must have the drafts of your poems for ALL of the literary devices you learned in class for review when you return to class.
