Lesson Plan

Animal Poetry

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet
This Animal Poetry lesson plan also includes:

Fourth graders write poems that use local wildlife as their inspiration. After a class discussion which produces a list of wildlife that pupils have seen in their town, a review of three types of poetry ensues. They look at how haiku, cinquain, and diamante poems are composed. Each child chooses an animal and a style of poetry to use in writing about it. I like the beautiful simplicity of this poetry writing lesson.
