Thinking Like Poets

4/26/2016

0 Comments

 
Last week we began our poetry unit...our last writing unit of the year! We have been practicing:
  • Looking at ordinary objects through "poet's eyes"
  • Playing with line breaks
  • Using repetition to make our poems feel like music
  • Packing big feelings into small details
Below is an example of a poem we wrote today as a class. We tried to capture the BIG FEELING of being excited for a Class TEAM party, but zoomed into the detail of the clay (from our last party).

Save the Date for our Poetry Cafe... June 2nd in the afternoon, more details TBA.
