We had a week of poetry writing last week in Primary 4/3

We learned that a Haiku poem has 3 lines, a pattern of 5-7-5 syllables & have a theme about nature or the seasons. We also learned that Acrostic poems have topic words hidden in the first few letters of each line & that by reading the letters vertically we will find the theme of the poem. We know that Acrostic poems do not need to rhyme.

We wrote a Haiku about summer, read it below…

We wrote an Acrostic poem about Miss Girvan & she wrote one about our class. Read it below…
