How to Process a Poem

Process a Poem means the following:

1. Read the poem aloud.
2. Make a word for word copy of the poem. (capitalize, punctuate, end lines in the same way as the original)
3. Circle all words that you do not understand and look them up in your dictionary.
4. Write your own explanation of the poem in your own words. Use the poem's length and format as a guide for how long your explanation should be.
