For our final poetry project our teacher had us choose a way to show our learning for poetry. We had to write a minimum of 3 poetic forms and present. I made 5 stars and had a different poetic device for each star. 
 
Learning Intention: I can create a variety of poems that follow specific forms using poetic devices.


From doing this unit I learned many, many things. I learned how to write different kinds of poetry such as, Haiku, Concrete, Found etc. I learned different things about how to write them, for example a haiku must have 3 lines and the first line has to be 5 syllables the second 7 then the third 5 again. As for concrete the poem has to make up the picture not go around it (take a look at the butterfly in the slideshow for a example) Something else I learned is how to add poetic devices into the poems, (metaphor, rhyme etc.)
 
I really enjoyed doing this project, it was really fun to try and get as creative as possible. :D
Here is a slideshow of all of the stars and the poems that are on them.

 
Picture
We made these sensory poems. A sensory poem has all the senses so that the reader can fell like he/she is there and in this case eating the food.



What I learned: I learned how to put the poetic devices inside my poem to make it more effective: Soft pasta sliding down my throat like a stream, apposed to soft pasta.
