PoetryThe goal of these lessons were to have students build a portfolio filled with different types of poetry. Below are examples of different types of poems we covered in grade 8.

Nature poem
This lesson was probably one of my favorite ones to teach! As a class we went for a walk to the Bow River. Students then took a few minutes of silence to listen to the environment and snap a few pictures of the scenery. When we got back to the classroom, students had to choose one element they saw and write a poem personifying the environment.
