Let’s Explore Poetry! (A Weekly Poetry Workshop)
Class experience
US Grade 3 - 6
Each week we’ll learn about a new type of poetry— from pantoum to acrostic, and free verse to haiku. Join us in this special class, where the poet is YOU. In each class we’ll begin with a short introduction to the style of poem we’ll be practicing and then I’ll give you simple instructions to play with writing some poems of your own. Have fun playing with words and exploring new formats and poetry structure. I’ll be there to help and offer assistance as needed during writing time...
Students will learn a new style of poem. Students will learn the structure and step-by-step process for creating their own poems. Students will practice writing their own poems. Students will share their poetry with confidence and receive support from the teacher and other students in the class. Students will practice offering kind feedback to their peers.
