Do people think of you as hard and rough, but you think you are a treasure inside that they can't see?? Don't make your poem more complicated than it needs to be...Think about the assignment for a second... all i'm asking you to do is write a poem about yourself. Now...going a bit further...i'm suggesting ways you can go about doing this by using categories...for example.. write about your personality, your dreams, your fears, your weaknesses etc etc... by thinking about categories gives you a way to organize your thoughts... so the next step is ... how do you do that...???well why not begin by just writing about yourself in a literal way...
What do other think of you?
They think... all i enjoy writng and i a super students...
your poetry might soon like... outside
A test taking machine some may suggest
Fear of failure is why I strive my best
inside
I think... ..i like doing art....
how can i do that in a poetic and/or figurative way..?
Drawing and mixing paints brightens my days
Being artistic and creative in countless ways
You need to do just 12 lines like this... and maybe find a special way to end...
no...the title doesn't count....(but give a realistic title)
Also..VERY IMPORTANT...there is a rhyming dictionary on the left side of the blog...use it to find words and phrases that rhyme if you want

Can the poem be inside inside then in the next stanza outside outside and have that same pattern.
Thomas
are our poems aloud to have fragments in it?
thanks
ashley
Yes, Thomas, that is just fine. you can find a bit of the info in your poetry packet, too--about half way back. Looking forward to reading them!
Thanks, Mikey! I'm glad the 50 states game helped. I'm looking to find more to post as well.
Ashley, it really would depend on the flow of your poem. Read it to your parents. What do they think? Have them read it to you. Does the thought sound complete? Each line or group of lines needs a complete thought, so if you use a fragment, complete it on the next line. Does that help?
For our group presentation, can it be a skit?
Can we wear costumes?
Thanks, Livy

Livy, You may do a skit if you would like, and certainly! Costumes are always ok for something like this as long as they add to your presentation!! Have fun with it.
