Class

Average rating:4.9Number of reviews:(216)
Whether learners have a ‘favourite colour’ or a ‘favorite color’, we’ll explore what those shades mean to us, what they make us think of and how we can express those thoughts in a free verse poem.

Class experience

US Grade 3 - 5
Students will:
Learn about free verse poetry and when it is an effective choice.
Explore different aspects of colour and what they may remind us of (eg, certain emotions, temperatures, etc).
Build interesting phrases and expand on their descriptions.
Experiment with ordering their phrases in different ways and identify what they feel works best.
Produce a free verse poem about a colour of their choice and have the tools to go to create poems about other colours if they wish.
Writing is my passion and as well as majoring in English at university, along with Theatre Arts, I've almost 20 years of experience in teaching English in primary schools. Over those years, I have worked regularly with groups of children specifically on English writing skills and teaching creative writing online.
I have both written poetry and taught poetry over many years.
