Poetry Cafe Over the course of the next several school days, you will be asked to write at least 10 different forms of poetry.
Before we begin, you need to save the Poetry file to yoru Lit 11-12 folder. Here are the steps.
1. Navigate to X Drive/ Pick Up 8/Gablin-Graves/ Poetry
2. Right click on the folder called Poetry and click COPY!
3. Navigate to your Lit 11-12 folder
4. Right click and click Paste.
Now you have the folder saved in your file to do the work you need to do.
Within the folder, you will find various forms of poetry with a description that outlines the qualities of the poem, and gives directions. It will also provide a sample demonstrating the type of poem.
You will open up each form of poetry, read the poems description, read the poem model(s), and then, write your own poem in the same vein as the form you are reading about.
After writing your poem, SAVE EACH POEM you write in its OWN file by the name of the poem form
For Example?. BioPoem_Graves
Haiku_Graves
