4 Students work individually
now to note some ideas for
their poem. Remind them that it should be about two
unusual objects meeting. Ask
them to make notes in the
relevant sections.
5 Students now write their verses. Monitor and help with
language as needed. Point out
they can use the rhyming
words in exercise 3, any rhyming words from the poem,
or their own ideas.
When they have finished, they can
either post them on
the wall for everyone to read, or
volunteers can take turns reading their verses out to the
rest of the class.
