If each of your students wrote an
Earth poem, no two would be the same.
That’s because you showed
them how to tap into their inner poet.
Step by step, you
brainstormed lists and charts for each poetic device: sensory detail, rhyme,
repetition, alliteration, simile, invented words, and author’s voice.
The kids could reference
those charts, and add to them to create their own unique visions.
Then you’d see the Earth—and everything
else in the universe—through fresh eyes.
And you might think that poetry writing
is heaven.
