You need a partner for this exercise. Each partner

should write one sentence for each vocabulary word, inserting blanks where the words would appear.

The sentences should be in a random order, not in the order in which the words appear on the worksheet.

You will exchange papers with your partner and fill in the blanks on your partners’ paper with the vocabulary word.

The partner with the most correct responses wins a treat!

After reviewing the TPFASTT worksheet,

choose one of the poems we have just read and analyze it on a separate piece of paper – to be turned in!
