Poetry

Room 221 is filled with poets! I have been blown away with their poetry writing, and we've just started. Poets write about many different topics. Room 221 poets have written about their own lives, ideas in their imaginations and even things they can see around them.

As we continue in our unit, Room 221 poets will learn to:

-use line breaks
- include repetition
-include rhythm
-include alliteration
-choose powerful words
-show feelings

Ask your child about the first poems they have written. You can even write poetry together at home.

Happy writing! :o)
