TODAY'S TASKS ARE:
1. Monthly News Article:
TODAY'S ARTICLE:
Each week we are going to learn about a new type of poem. Complete each daily task so that you are ready to create the best possible poem that you can at the end of the week.
THIS WEEK'S POEM: Acrostic.
There are several ways to write an acrostic poem. It can be a list, with a different item or characteristic (trait) on each line. See the example below. "Emma" is a list poem made up of phrases; "Tarzan" is a list poem made up of single words. Or, and acrostic poem can comprise a statement or question that works its way through the poem, as in the examples "Cat" and "Trash."
Today, you will start brainstorming ideas for an acrostic poem about yourself. Your task today is to fill in the worksheet about yourself. Include as much information as possible (in point form).
