Poetry in Room 14

WALT write original poems.

First we talked about what a poem is. Here are some of our thoughts:
*entertainment *expressive writing *feelings*emotions*a really short story*a message to other people*showing our thoughts * the best writing *

Then we wrote a class poem together using a website called Read Write Think. 

It helped us write our poem because it made us think of interesting words. It gave us topics to write about. It also gave us steps to work through. We brainstormed before we wrote because brainstorming gets our good ideas out of our head and onto paper. It also gives us a boost.


Here is our poem. We would love some feedback.



Now we are all busily writing our own. We will share them with you soon!

  5. Lovely poem Room14. I like the hard sounding "K" of "Crying Clouds" to start the poem with impact. Then the softer "Sssp" sound of "splashing" and "sparkling" which gave me a sense gentleness and beauty. Thank you for that, more please.
