This week, sixth graders will create a poetry review. Poetry uses sounds and images to reach beyond your mind and grab your heart. Other forms of writing may inform or entertain, but a poem’s purpose is to make you feel and respond—and sometimes even soar!
One great way to respond to a poem is to write a poetry review. Like a book review, a poetry review tells what a poem is about. It also explains what makes the poem work so well. Students will choose a poem that they enjoy by class on Wednesday and then they will begin writing their own poetry review.
