I can't believe it's already March! We are starting our poetry unit, and you will have the chance to exercise all of your poetic abilities. Here are this week's poetry topics:
Wednesday: Making Comparisons Using the Five Senses (Similes)
Poem (in class): Write about what's in your backpack, making sure you write five similes, one for each of the five senses!
Thursday: Concrete Imagery
Poem (in class): Write about your bedroom, using language that appeals directly to the five senses.
Friday: Personification
Poem (in class): Write a poem that turns a feeling or an emotion into a person. Your poem should include concrete imagery and at least TWO similes.
Each of these lessons will give you other skills to use when you write poems in the future!
