Poetry Doesn't Have to be Boring!: For Kids and Teachers

By Greg Harding

Teachers: An easy to run with unit on poetry, teaching a range of forms with lots of examples. Complete with a comprehensive assignment, marking rubric and exercises for language development. Light on the instructions as I know you just want something to pick up and go with (I was a teacher and rarely read instructions). Kids: You can do this yourself Even suggest it to your teacher. This book will get your creative juices flowing. Poetry isn't as boring as you might think, in fact, it's in most of the songs you like. Designed for middle/upper primary but transferable into secondary years. There are small sets of instructions for each form: Haiku; tongue-twisters; acrostics; onomatopoeia; shape poems; free verse; limericks. Also included: Worksheets on similes, metaphors and personification.
