Emily Dickinson Defining Poetry

Group Activity - Emily Dickinson Poetry Discuss your interpretation of your assigned poem with your group: Use your poetry analysis graphic organizer as a guide to discuss the different elements of the poem. Discuss the theme or overall message of the poem. You and your group will conduct the following tasks: Create a poster that provides an interpretation of the poem. The poster should be an image or images that represents Dickinson’s overall message. The only words should be the title and small captions that help to explain your interpretation; however, the image should be able to stand alone. Create an original poem that models the poem you are studying: include the same topic, same type of figurative language, meter, number of stanzas, rhyme scheme, punctuation, etc. (Although you are writing about the same topic or subject, your message or idea about the subject or topic should be original and your own message, not Dickinson’s. (Your final poem should be on computer paper and added to your poster).
