POETRY/LYRIC INTERPRETATION PRESENTATION
POETRY/LYRIC EXHIBITION & ANALYSIS
Select either a poem or song lyrics to interpret creatively, in presentation form, for the class. The interpretive portion must include a 1-minute introduction or "wrap-up" presenting rationale for your interpretation. It should explain to your audience the thinking/feeling behind your creative interpretation. For example, the rationale might explain what elements of a particular song created a particular visual image for you, and why you believe that image is captured in the black & white photos you have displayed.
The interpretation, itself, might include any of the following approaches:
• creative reading of a work
• dancing to or acting out song lyrics played aloud
• reciting a poem from memory
• reciting a poem accompanied by music
• a poem made into a video
• singing a song live
• acting out a poem with props & costumes
• a work of visual art accompanied by reading/playing lyrics
...or any other combination or variation (except simply pulling a music video off of MTV or pushing a button on a boom box!)
You must also submit a written analysis that employs the poetic elements discussed in class. This analysis should include …
• a discussion of the work’s tone and theme
• a discussion of at least 4 elements from the Poet’s Palette
- define the element
- identify where/how it occurs in the lyrics
- explain how it fits the above definition
- explain how it contributes to the tone and/or theme
*Also, attach a copy of your lyrics with your working notes
Exhibition: Clarity of rationale & Creativity 40 pts.
Written Analysis: Ideas, interpretation, support, and clarity 60 pts.
