In this lesson, students continue to plan their essays. They plan the body paragraph, which is the paragraph that includes biographical information about their selected poet.
As in the previous lesson, students begin by doing shared planning for an essay about William Carlos Williams. You again model using the graphic organizer and the thinking process, this time regarding planning the body paragraph. Students then move on to plan the body paragraph of their own essay \ sitting with their poet groups for support.
