POETRY PERCH (Nonet/Acrostic/Septolet) These three summer camp days will be a blast, and you won't even have to work up a sweat! We'll learn how to write Nonet, Acrostic, and Septolet poems. Fly on in! Day 1 - NONETS let you tell the story of your choice. You just have to follow the rules! You've got nine lines and 45 syllables in which you can share all the interesting details. Day 2 - ACROSTICS let you begin with one word and expand it into a complete poem with a line for every letter...
I'm a poetry nut! I love to read poems, and I love to write them. I get excited about teaching various forms of poetry to young writers, because they are easy for them to understand and execute. Producing these forms often brings on lots of smiles, giggles, and "Ah ha!" moments! That makes me happy!
Students should already be comfortable with writing complete sentences, and should be willing to share their writing ideas with their fellow students in a comfortable, encouraging atmosphere.
Lined paper, writing utensils
