The Poetry ILT
Last week we did a Poetry ILT. Poetry is a way to express your thoughts and feelings with rhythm and sometimes it rhymes. People write poetry because they have lots to express or maybe they are making a rap to a song. Over the last 3 days we did Choral Verse, Terminology, Poetry Writing, Black out Poetry, Poetry Slam, Analyzing Poetry, Imagery and a self reflection.
My favorite thing was Terminology because we had to search up poetry words and the make a video with all the words in it. I enjoyed it because we got to think out of the box. The task that I did not enjoy that much was Imagery because I did not under stand what we had to do. I did not under stand the poems and the image in my mind did not link up to the poem at all! (I think). The most challenging task for me was the poetry slam, I had to learn all my words off by heart and my group wanted to preform in front of the grade! I wanted to preform it in front of the grade but I needed a little more time to learn the words. When we did it in front of the grade I was so nervous because I thought I would forget the words but I didn't so I was really glad that I didn't make a fool of my self in front of the grade. (Or did I?)
I learned some knew vocabulary to! I learned that "Nay" (what a horse says) is another word for "NO"! We had to say it in our poetry slam. I said that it would be weird because our poem is about emotions, NOT horses. We had to say it anyway. I learned that when I am nervous about something it will all be great in the end and that mistakes are just proof that I am trying.
My favorite poem is,
I love this poem because it is true and it tells me that if I do all of that, I'll be a great friend and that is what I want to be.
