Redacted Poetry to Analyze Mood and Tone

Students are working on a cool project tomorrow. They chose a section of their reading group novel they would like me to copy for them. Tomorrow, they will use these sections of text to create a redacted poem: where they select certain words, phrases, or sentences to create a poem that mirrors the mood of their novel. This is a graded assignment, and you can see the rubric here.

See some examples below, and make sure to come back; I will post our own creations here when we finish!
