  1. Poetry Project Objective: We will communicate the main idea of our research through a poem we write.

  2. Roses are red… • Poems communicate an idea in a descriptive way. • Think about the main idea that you would want your reader or listener to know and understand about the person or event that you researched.

  3. Use Figurative Language • Symbols • Similes (like or as) • Metaphors • Personification • Onomatopoeia

  4. Alliteration • Repetition of initial consonant sound of words • Alliteration adds flow and smoothness to the lines of poems • But a better butter would make a better batter • We like to use alliteration for names • Dunkin’ Donuts • PayPal • Best Buy • Coca-Cola • American Airlines • Chuckee Cheese’s • Bed Bath & Beyond

  5. Assonance • The repetition of an internal vowel sound in words that are close to one another. • It adds rhythm and internal rhyming • The woodsare lovely, dark and deep.But I have promises to keep,And miles to go before I sleep,And miles to go before I sleep

Acrostic Poem L E A D E R • Pick a keyword to write down • Write a line of poetry starting with each letter HANNAH Here is a name which, read it as you may, A similar sweetness shows from either way.
