DO NOW What are the “paragraphs” called that poetry is written in?

Breaking Lines and Stanzas Poetry is written to be spoken. Break lines to emphasize breaths, pauses, or silences. Break on nouns, verbs, adjectives, and adverbs. Try to draft in lines. When you revise, insert // between words to create a new line break, and ========================== between lines to indicate a new stanza break. Experiment with the size, shape, and length of lines and stanzas.

Punctuation In general, punctuate and capitalize poems as if they’re prose, but don’t be afraid to experiment with/without capitals and punctuation, either.

Example Poems Rain Poem – First and Second Drafts “Revealing Rain” “The Meet”

Your Drafts Take a look at your drafts…. Do your poems look like “poems” with lines and stanzas or do they look more like paragraphs?

Toolbox Add “Breaking Lines and Stanzas and Punctuation” to the Other Hints section.

Writing Time Continue working on your poetry! Be aware of line/stanza breaks and punctuation. Can you use figurative language in your poems? Looking for ideas? Revisit your Heart Map or your list of ideas for personification.

For Tomorrow… You will need to hand in your TWO best poems. Write me a short note at the bottom of each poem, explaining what “tools” from the toolbox are used. They can be poetic devices or from the other hints section. Be specific! (at least 3 sentences) Also, if you have any questions about your poem for me, write those on the bottom.
