The first genre we will be exploring for this unit is poetry!
Think about the three topics you are considering for your Multi-Genre Project. Which one is most appealing to you? How could you incorporate a poem into that project? What would that poem say to your readers? How would it carry the theme of your project?
A poem is one of the five required genres you can use for this assignment, so think about a way to use what you write today as a mere puzzle piece in the big puzzle that will be your multi-genre project. Below are some tips for writing poetry:
-Use
imagery that paints pictures in the reader's mind
-Think about
perspective; who is the speaker of your
poem, and what does he/she have to say?
-Use poetic devices like similes,
metaphors, alliteration, and personification to add life to your
work
-Set the
tone for your reader based on the diction
(words) you use
-Use the
5 senses - sight, hearing, taste, touch, and smell
-Try to make it
rhyme!
