IEW- Week 12 Poetry

Please share your writing from pictures assignment if you would like.

We're going to have some fun today with poetry.
To get the creative juices flowing let's start with an acrostic poem using our names. Write your name in bold letters down the side of a page, then describe yourself with adjectives starting with these letters. You may get ideas from your Student Resource Notebook.

Read the sample poem on pg 231 of USHBW.
Turn to Lesson 19 in your USHBW book on pg 137 where we will be working on a poem about America. Pick one to two adjectives for your noun (example: seahorses) and if you want to add another phrase choose that, of, or with and finish your thought, example "sunlit, sparkling seashores that speak to strangers."

Hopefully you can get a good start on this if not finish. I would love to hear your poems next year but no worries if you forget.

Merry Christmas! See you Next Year!
