Here, we have the poem Jabberwocky by Lewis Carroll... However, soon it will be a poem written by you... with the help of the Bard (Shakespeare) himself. All the words with stars are made up words by Carroll... we're gonna change them with words that Shakespeare invented! (Here... there are 68,880 different poems that COULD be made!) Remember, when you're all done, print out the new poem and include it in the final portfolio!
Don't forget.. if you need help, you can still visit the Shakespeare: Subject to Change site for inspiration!
