Cinquain Metaphor Poem: Anger is...

(0)
Cinquains are poems with clearly defined conventions and encourage students to think in metaphorical ways. This resources uses a cinquain about the emotion of anger to teach the structure of a cinquain. Students then choose an emotion of their choice to write a cinquain about. This exercise teaches students to “think outside the box” about their emotion. Thinking metaphorically develops higher level cognition. This lesson also allows students to explore emotions.

Introduce Yourself: Acrostic Poetry

(0)
A great Powerpoint resource to allow you to get to know a new class in a relaxed, creative and fun way. Students engage with two several examples of acrostic poems and then write their own acrostic with their own name, thereby introducing themselves and their personalities to you. Great for English or for exploring oneself during PSCHE lessons. After checking by the teacher, students take care in re-drafting their poems for a class display. Bordered display paper templates are included in the folder. Students are also given a bank of positive and appropriate adjectives to inspire them.
