 Intro to Poetry Today we will explore each of the following: What is Poetry? Where can it be found? The ‘lingo’ of poetry Types of poetry The crime of a rhyme Poetry KS1 Examples KS1 KS2 poetry Final thoughts

What is poetry?  Poetry is an art intertwined with today’s society.  Examples: Music, greetings cards, TV adverts, football chants, stories and of course poems.  Quite simply, poetry is a pattern of language.  Poetry is an opportunity for children to express their feelings and themselves.  Cross curricular opportunities: Drama, Music, PDMU.

The lingo  Couplet – two lines of poetry with the same rhythm. A-B A-A, A-B-C-A etc.  Stanza/verse – a group of couplets that are linked.  Meter – this is the rhythm of the poem (da-dum, da-dum, da-dum, da-dum, da-dum)  Imagery – generating a mental/visual picture of the setting.

Types of Poetry  Acrostic – written vertically it spells out a word.  Allegory – there's a moral message hidden/disguised – Bible parables.  Blank verse – There is no rhythm or rhymes.  Free verse – there is a rhythm based upon syllables.  Personification – giving an inanimate object human characteristics.  Limerick – AA-BB-A  Alliteration or tongue twister – Slippery, snake, slithers, slowly

The Crime of the Rhyme  Rhyming quite simply confuses children of all ages when it comes to writing; especially those in KS1.  In KS2 I would let the children write their poetic sentences and they can then add a rhyme after if they wish to do so.  Children enjoy the rhyming element, so it is a useful way to introduce children to poetry. Use songs and nursery rhymes to assist this.  Tip : finding a rhyme can sometimes be difficult. A way of avoiding this is by changing the sentence structure. For example:  ‘The people ran in their thousands’  ‘People in their thousands run’

KS1 Poetry  Focus on descriptions opposed to rhymes.  Give the ch’n a easy to follow structure For example: In the magic box there could be A fluffy, bright, colorful toy. A ___________________________ It could even be a A ___________________________  Use writing frames: for example one lesson could be simply listing adjectives, describing objects. The next lesson could be the writing of the sentences.  Create shared poems together.  Guided fantasy activities…

Two examples children aged 6: A - “One suny day I sor clowds dancin in the breez and buterflys fluterin in the sky” B - “One sunny day I sor a boy with a ball. One suny day I sor tall.”  As you can see rhymes can turn a sentence around in a way it wont make sense.  Descriptions in poems in KS1 can be extremely effective.

KS2 Poetry  As poetry is individual, try to give the children to freedom of choosing. E.g. Titanic narrators - explain (1 st person)  Use personification to write poems, write as though you are an object that can talk (sprinkle a little magic).  Use the poetic ‘show’ don’t ‘tell’ strategy. For example: ‘Tears ran down my cheeks’ opposed to ‘I was really sad, so I cried.’ you are showing ‘sadness’ not ‘telling’. Use ‘scaffolding approach’: lesson 1: Ideas – what you see/feel/hear etc. Lesson 2: Poetic sentences Lesson 3: Structure/verses/ordering sentences and rhymes.

KS2 continued…  Ensure the children are telling a story.  Give them the beginning, middle and end in the frameworks to assist this.  Again, create shared poems together as a class to model the expectations.  Ensure each lesson includes input of some kind, whether is is a video clip of discussions – sometimes ideas don’t flow as freely as we hope.  Let the children redraft their work and improve it once you have given feedback.  Let the children express themselves as often as possible. You will find when placed in the position of an inanimate object they will express themselves very freely.

Final thoughts  Use pictures or music to stimulate writing. Looking at a picture can stimulate a thousand thoughts and ideas.  Look for flashes of originality and let the children know you are looking for great sentences/couplets not just a great poem.  Assess against specific criteria. E.g. Repetition for effect/adjectives/alliteration/show don’t tell.  Use the children's senses to assist with descriptions.  Create shared poems with the class to model the expectations.  Let the children redraft their poetry – this is very important to help them improve.
