Grade 4 students introduced to poems

Grade 4 was introduced to different poems like Haiku, Cinquain, Limerick and free verse as integration to our UOI on Communication through speaking and writing to express ideas, feelings and emotions. Students were divided into groups and they were given different poems to analyze the structure of the poem and its meaning. They wrote their understanding after brainstorming with their peers. Students used note taking skills to write the rules of the structure of different types of poems. Then using the structure, students created their own Cinquain, Haiku, Limerick and Free verse poems on various topics and made a poem booklet. Students exhibited the attitude of creativity and Enthusiasm by making a PPT on different poems and presented in front of the whole class. This enhanced their confidence and use of communication skills. Read less
