9th Grade Poem Poster Assignment

DUE FRIDAY, 11/20

You must write a poem that is at least 15 lines long. This poem must be presented artistically on a poster or colored piece of paper. This poem must contain at least two of the poetic terms that I taught you, and these poetic terms must be used throughout the poem, not just in one line. In addition to that, your poem must have a clear and intentional theme.

Potential Poetic Terms: simile, personification, metaphor, symbol, apostrophe, rhyme, alliteration, repetition, theme, imagery, allusion, tone, mood

This assignment is worth 25 points.

I will be grading you on your spelling, grammar and length

Your use of poetic terms/figurative language throughout the poem

Your artistic and creative visual presentation of the poem.

Your poster must be bigger than an A4 piece of paper. It should be colorful. Its design should be related to the meaning of the poem.
