Alliteration: is a literary device, when words begin with the same consonant sound.

Imagery: is a literary device, that uses descriptive words to add depth and senses to their work.

Metaphor: is a figure of speech that describes an object or action in a way that isn't fully true, but helps explain an idea or make a comparison.

Simile: a figure of speech that compares two things, using

like or as.

Examples:

Her heart is gold.

You are my sunshine.

The world is a stage.

Examples:

As blind as a bat.

Metaphor and simile is similar, but metaphor states that something IS something else.

The words are already on the page, but as the POET, it's your job to bring new meaning using the same words.

Step 1: Scan the page for anchor words (a word that stays out and is full of meaning.

Step 2: Read the page and connect words to the anchor word. Try to only circle three words in a row.

Step 3: List all of the circled words on a separate piece of paper. List the words in the order that they

appear on the page of text from top to bottom, left to right.

Step 4: Select words, without changing their order on the list, and piece them together to create the

lines of a poem. If these words don't work, go back to your original to find another word.

Step 5: Return to the page of text and circle only the words you selected for the final poem.

Remember to also erase the circles around any words you will not be using.

Step 6: Add an picture or design to the page of text that connects to your poem. Don't cover your circle

words.

Brothers

By: Jenny Elvy

Source: https://www.familyfriendpoems.com/poem/brothers-3

A gentle kiss upon the cheek,

Their love growing stronger with each week.

Watching them make each other laugh,

Watching them happily sharing a bath.

The two of them lying together on the floor,

The smile on their faces is a sight to adore.

When new siblings bond, it brings great pleasure.

And as they grow up, it is something to treasure.

What is a Limerick?

- a set of two lines that usually rhymes

Example:

A Minute

By: Patricia A. Gordon

Take a minute and you will see

Just how powerful

Listening can be.

Take a minute to offer a smile and a touch.

Your sincerity

Means so much.

Take a minute and simply be kind.

A friend for life

May be what you find.

Everyone, young or old,

Needs someone to listen

As their stories are told.

The difference is yours to make.

A minute from your busy day

Is all it would take.

Take a minute and lend an ear.

Listen intently

To what you hear.

She flew by the pond,

And freshen her breath

By kissing the rose.

Why do we have homework after school?

This is so uncool.

I so want to cry

I want to deny

All of this homework after school.

If ice cream could be grown on the tree top,

Tiny tummies would be liking it lots.

Any fruit flavour

For all to savour.

Do stop by at the ice cream tree shop.

If only the trees could grow lollipops

With a sharp tangy taste of lemon drops.

Lolly licky-lick

With a zingy twist.

Come along with a skip and a hop.

If chocolate heaven grew on tree leaf,

Bountiful, tempting, delicious to eat,

A smooth, silky, treat

In a chocy feast.

If only they weren't so out of reach.

If bubblegum grew upon trees that blew

Bubbles in the air, to catch and to chew.

Be nimble, be quick;

Remember the trick.

Don't swallow, because gum sticks like glue.

What is poetry?

Dr. Seuss wrote his poems using anapestic tetrameter (tetra = four): each line of poetry had “four feet” (or anapests).

Anapests contains a total of three syllables; two syllable were unstressed, and then followed by one stressed syllable.

Rhythm of each line is like:

Da da DUM / da da DUM / da da DUM / da da DUM

On the FIFtenth of MAY, in the JUNgle of NOOL,

In the HEAT of the DAY, in the COOL of the POOL,

He was SPLASHING … enjoying the JUNgle’s great JOYs…

When HORton and the Elephant HEARD a small NOISE.

On the 15th of May, in the Jungle of Nool,

In the heat of the day, in the cool of the pool, He was splashing… enjoying the jungle’s great joys… When Horton the elephant heard a small noise.

And catch the worm for your breakfast plate.

But if you’re a worm, sleep late.”

was your first thought this?

Sonnet 18 by: William Shakespeare

Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?

Thou art more lovely and more temperate:

Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,

And summer’s lease hath all too short a date:

Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,

And often is his gold complexion dimm’d;

And every fair from fair sometime declines,

By chance, or nature’s changing course, untrimm’d;

But thy eternal summer shall not fade

Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow’st;

Nor shall Death brag thou wander’st in his shade,

When in eternal lines to time thou grow’st;

So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,

So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.

Types of Poetry

Haiku

Fun Fact: Haiku's originated from 17-century Japan.

Traditional Haiku's consistent of:

- 5 syllable - 7 syllable - 5 syllable

- meeting of two images

- a seasonal reference

A total of 17 syllables is divided up into three lines:

Beautiful forests (5)

Ms. Huang loves the great outdoors (7)

Eat, sleep, be outside (5)

Today we will start with name poems, which are also known as acrostic poems.

A traditional haiku paints a picture.

Describing two different images that meet in the picture.

Ie. Autumn a poem by Paul Holmes

Ripe golden harvests (5)

Burning sun in azure skies (7)

Labours rewarded (5)

The word skies acts as a cutting

word and puts the two pictures

together. The last line ties in

with emotion as we

imagine a hardworking

farmer finally being

rewarded.

slideshare.net

Use one of the four methods for identifying the number of syllables found in each word in your worksheet.

Let's first learn how to count syllables! :)

What is a Syllable?

Seasonal such as frosty windows, falling leaves, spring

flowers, etc...

However Haiku's can be written about anything.

Even about pizza pops.

Possibly a seasonal pizza pop flavour you enjoy.

It is a single, unbroken sound of a spoken word (or written). They usually contain a vowel (a, i, e, o, u) and then are followed by a consonant (d, k, etc...)

There are four ways we can count syllables:

The Listen method

The chin method

the clapping method

the robot method

THE ROBOT SPEAK METHOD

THE CHIN METHOD

The clap method

The Listen Method

1 2 3 4

Say the word.

Clap each time you hear the a, i, e, o, u as a separate sound.

The amount of times you clapped, the the amount of syllables there are.

COUNT THESES:

SHEEP

UNSATISFACTORY

Pretend to be a robot from 2000, say the words like this robot would.

Note all the PAUSES you make.

Example:

Ro..... PAUSE bot... (2 syllables)

COUNT THESE:

PRIMARY

SUPERMARKET

Place your hand underneath your chin.

Say the word.

How many times does your chin touch your hand?

This is the amount of syllables.

COUNT THESE WORDS:

STRONGEST

SHOPPING

Say the word.

How many times do you hear the a, i, e, o, u vowels as separate sounds?

This is the number of syllables.

COUNT THESE WORDS:

BASKET

ADORABLE

As a class we will be going over a few

types of poetry, and making our own.

The first letter of each line usually

spells out a word or phase.
