The sixth grade students have begun our Poetry unit. Today they took a short quiz on the terms and different strategies used in Poetry. We practiced using and identifying the following terms:
Imagery
Metaphor/Simile
Tone
Alliteration
Assonance
Repetition
Mood
Figurative Language
Rhythm
Stanza
Onomatopoeia
Personification
Next week the students will be creating their own poems. We would like the students to stick to one general theme to create a poetry book. The students will create definition poems, Haiku's, Diamante, and many others.
