SECTION 1: WHAT IS POETRY? ____________________________________________________________________________________________

Poetry can be defined as writing in which feelings and ideas are given intensity by the use of:

…figurative language (such as simile and metaphor)

…poetic devices (such as rhyme and repetition)

…rhythm and meter (the pattern of stressed and unstressed syllables)

…the division of text into lines and verses (instead of sentences and paragraphs)

TYPES OF POEMS

1. Rhyming Poetry:

Any rhymes here? https://www.familyfriendpoems.com/poem/the-life-of-a-cupcake

Rhyme is the repetition of the same or similar sounds at the end of two or more words at the ends of lines. This

technique makes the poem easy to remember and is therefore often used in Nursery Rhymes. There are two

types of rhyme:

Hands on: Work with a partner. Using your iPads, explain and find and write an example for each rhyme type

SECTION 1: WHAT IS POETRY? - Rhyming Poems ___________________________________________________________________

Rhyme Scheme Rhyme scheme is a poet's strategy of choosing which lines in poetry will rhyme with each other. The rhyme scheme, or pattern, can be identified by giving end words that rhyme with each other the same letter. For instance, take the poem 'Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star', written by Jane Taylor in 1806. Can you try to complete the rhyme scheme for the poem below?

'Twinkle, twinkle, little star, _______

How I wonder what you are. _______

Up above the world so high, _______

Like a diamond in the sky._______

Twinkle, twinkle, little star, _______

How I wonder what you are!' _______

Limericks:

A limerick is a funny (and sometimes rude) poem with a strong beat. Limericks are entertaining poems and can sometimes be just nonsense. They are great for kids to both read and write as they are short and funny. A limerick should have a specific rhyme scheme and consists of five lines. * The first line of a limerick poem usually begins with 'There was a....' and ends with a name, person or place. * The last line of a limerick is normally a little unusual.

Read the limerick below and write the rhyme scheme in parenthesis. Use the words in the box to complete the descriptions:

A limerick from the Book of Nonsense by Edward Lear

There was an Old Man with a beard (___) Introduces the _____________________

Who said, 'It is just as I feared! (___) What’s ________________ about the character

Two Owls and a Hen, (___) Two _______________ lines that continue the story

Four Larks and a Wren, (___)

Have all built their nests in my beard!’(___) Gives the ______________ of the joke.

SECTION 1: WHAT IS POETRY? - Non-rhyming Poetry

____________________________________________________________________

2. Non-rhyming Poetry:

Not all the poems need to rhyme. There are some poem types that do NOT follow a specific rhyme scheme.

Haiku:

Haiku Poetry is a Japanese poem composed of three unrhymed lines of five, seven, and five syllables. Haiku

poetry originated in the sixteenth century in Japan and reflects on some aspect of nature to create images.

A Haiku is a type of poetry that can be written on many themes, from love to nature.

Examples of Haiku Poetry:

(5) The sky is so blue. (7) The sun is so warm up high.

(5)I love the summer.

Now, it’s your turn. Write a Haiku poem and illustrate with a picture that goes with it:

____________________________________________

_____________________________________________________________

__________________________________________

Cinquain:

American poet Adelaide Crapsey created the cinquain based on the Japanese haiku. A cinquain consists of

five unrhymed lines.

Line 1 is one word (the title)

Line 2 is two words that describe the title

Line 3 is three words that tell the action

Line 4 is a four word phrase that expresses feeling

Line 5 is one word that recalls the title

Hands on: You’ve tried Haiku, now, try the cinquain

______________________________________________________

Read the poems below and find at least 3 literary devices used in each poem. Underline the example and write the

name of the literary device on the blanks:

cute as a button, smart as a fox.

thin as a toothpick, white as a ghost,

fit as a fiddle, dumb as a post. bald as an eagle,

neat as a pin, proud as a peacock,

ugly as sin. When people are talking

you know what they'll say as soon as they start to

use a cliché.

2. The Railway Train

by Emily Dickinson

I like to see it lap the miles, And lick the valleys up, And stop to feed itself at tanks; And then, prodigious, step

Around a pile of mountains, And, supercilious, peer In shanties, by the sides of roads; And then a quarry pare

To fit its sides, and crawl between, Complaining all the while In horrid, hooting stanza; Then chase itself down hill

And neigh like Boanerges; Then, punctual as a star, Stop--docile and omnipotent-- At its own stable door.

3. Noises

By Marinela Reka

The snake hissed at the prey

The blue balloon popped

The large audience clapped

The car screeched as it stopped

The cat meowed for attention

The phone crackled by mistake

I crunched on my food

What noise do you make?

4. Dr. Seuss in “Fox in Socks”

Through three cheese trees three free fleas flew.

While these fleas flew, freezy breeze blew.

Freezy breeze made these three trees freeze.

Freezy trees made these trees' cheese freeze.

That's what made these three free fleas sneeze.

2. “Grenade” by Bruno Mars

Easy come easy go, that's just how you live

Oh, take, take, take it all but you never give

Should've known you was trouble from the first kiss

Had your eyes wide open, why were they open

Gave you all I had and you tossed it in the trash

You tossed it in the trash, you did

To give me all your love is all I ever asked

'Cause

CHORUS

What you don't understand is

I'd catch a grenade for ya

Throw my hand on a blade for ya

I'd jump in front of a train for ya

You know I'd do anything for ya

oh oh oh oh oh

I would go through all this pain

Take a bullet straight right through my brain

Yes, I would die for you, baby

But you won't do the same

No, no, no, no

Black, black, black and blue, beat me 'til I'm numb

Tell the devil I said, hey, when you get back to where

you're from

Mad woman, bad woman, that's just what you are,

yeah

You'll smile in my face then rip the brakes out my car

Gave you all I had and you tossed it in the trash

You tossed it in the trash, yes, you did

To give me all your love is all I ever asked

'Cause

CHORUS

If my body was on fire

Ooh, you'd watch me burn down in flames

You said you loved me, you're a liar

'Cause you never, ever, ever did, baby

But darling, I'd still catch a grenade for ya

Throw my hand on a blade for ya

I'd jump in front of a train for ya

You know I'd do anything for ya

I would go through all this pain

Take a bullet straight right through my brain

Yes, I would die for you, baby

But you won't do the same

No, you won't do the same

You wouldn't do the same

Ooh, you never do the same

No, no, no, no

SECTION 5: POEM ANALYSIS

_______________________________________________________

The most important thing we've learned,

So far as children are concerned,

Is never, NEVER, NEVER let

Them near your television set --

Or better still, just don't install

The idiotic thing at all.

In almost every house we've been,

We've watched them gaping at the screen.

They loll and slop and lounge about,

And stare until their eyes pop out.

(Last week in someone's place we saw

A dozen eyeballs on the floor.)

They sit and stare and stare and sit

Until they're hypnotised by it,

Until they're absolutely drunk

With all that shocking ghastly junk.

Oh yes, we know it keeps them still,

They don't climb out the window sill,

They never fight or kick or punch,

They leave you free to cook the lunch

And wash the dishes in the sink --

But did you ever stop to think,

To wonder just exactly what

This does to your beloved tot?

IT ROTS THE SENSE IN THE HEAD!

IT KILLS IMAGINATION DEAD!

IT CLOGS AND CLUTTERS UP THE MIND!

IT MAKES A CHILD SO DULL AND BLIND

HE CAN NO LONGER UNDERSTAND

A FANTASY, A FAIRYLAND!

HIS BRAIN BECOMES AS SOFT AS CHEESE!

HIS POWERS OF THINKING RUST AND FREEZE!

HE CANNOT THINK -- HE ONLY SEES!

No Difference

by Shel Silverstein

Small as a peanut, Big as a giant,

We're all the same size When we turn off the light.

Rich as a sultan, Poor as a mite,

We're all worth the same When we turn off the light.

Red, black or orange,

Yellow or white, We all look the same

When we turn off the light.

So maybe the way To make everything right

Is for God to just reach out And turn off the light!

Life doesn’t frighten me By Maya Angelou

Shadows on the wall Noises down the hall.

Life doesn’t frighten me at all. Bad dogs barking loud. Big ghosts in a cloud.

Life doesn’t frighten me at all

Mean old Mother Goose. Lions on the loose.

They don’t frighten me at all. Dragons breathing flame.

On my counterpane. That doesn’t frighten me at all.

I go boo.

Make them shoo. I make fun.

Way they run. I won’t cry. So they fly. I just smile.

They go wild. Life doesn’t frighten me at all.

Tough guys fight. All alone at night.

Life doesn’t frighten me at all.

Panthers in the park. Strangers in the dark.

No, they don’t frighten me at all.

That new classroom where Boys all pull my hair (Kissy little girls

With their hair in curls) They don’t frighten me at all.

Don’t show me frogs and snakes.

And listen for my scream, If I’m afraid at all.

It’s only in my dreams. I’ve got a magic charm

That I keep up my sleeve, I can walk the ocean floor.

And never have to breathe.

Life doesn’t frighten me at all. Not at all. Not at all.

Life doesn’t frighten me at all.
