Poetry Project Example, Kellie Hayden

Students choose a theme, write seven poems and select one published poem on the theme. The poetry booklet needs to be decorated and bound with an attractive cover.

Editors Choice

The theme poetry project shows student mastery of poetry techniques, as well as syllable count poetry and shape or concrete poetry. Students complete a poetry packet worksheet. On this worksheet, they answer questions about poetry techniques, rhyme poetry, syllable count poetry and shape or concrete poetry. In addition, students need to ask three people to comment on the complete poetry booklet.
