TIPS FOR CREATING A SPINE POEM  Check out examples of spine poems.  Get to a place with plenty of books. A library works nicely.  Start looking at titles, and see what strikes you. Arrange and rearrange in your head. The best part of this type of poetry is the fact that you don’t know where you’ll end up.  Have a pencil and paper with you to write down titles that stand out – you can refer back to them later.  Don’t be afraid to use the library catalog to look up titles with specific words or phrases that fit.

YOUR ASSIGNMENT  Create 5-8 lines of spine poetry. This can be several poems or one longer poem.  You must use the physical book to create your poem.  Choose a title that ties together your ideas.  Once your poem is complete, we must take a photo.  All books must be reshelved.
