CREATING A BALLAD RETELLING YOUR NEWS ARTICLE STORY:
For Tuesday:
-have a plot graph from your news article. You will need a minimum of 8 points!
-You will then be turning EACH plot point into a stanza following Ballad requirements. This is just like the practice we did in class today. This means that your ballad retelling your news article will be a minimum of 8 original stanzas (to a maximum of 12 stanzas) Your repetition may be in the form of a repeated stanza or repeated line. So, if you are doing a repeated stanza, you will need a minimum of 9 stanzas.
-You should have at least two of your stanzas completed by Tuesday. Tuesday will be a work block. Presentations are on Thursday.
