8-CHA – Passionate Poetic Perspective

Your Passionate Poetic Perspective Project is due on Wednesday December 16 as we will begin presenting in class that day. Remember that this is basically a showcase or portfolio of your best work presented in a unique way. Below are the requirement and some tips to help you out.

Requirements:

  • Select 3 of your own poems and 1 poem written by someone else (could be from a classmate or a published poet)
  • For each of the poems choose a unique way of representing it (a perspective) in either a visual, kinesthetic, or auditory way
    • You must use all three forms of representing. Therefore, two of the forms will be used once whereas one of the forms will be used twice.
  • Create a chart showing: the name of the poem, what you will be doing to represent the poem, and which form you are using (visual, kinesthetic, or auditory)
    • Eg. (Under the Table, 3D model of a little table sitting on two of it legs under a larger table, visual)
  • Work on your representation / perspective for each of the poems
  • For each poem write a brief statement (about one paragraph) on how why you chose the perspective that you did and how this perspective fits with your poem. Remember to think about metaphors.
  • Come ready to present your Passionate Poetic Perspectives on Wednesday December 16.

Tips:

  • Think outside the box as often strange, weird, and unique are also the most interesting
  • Think about metaphors and how you can represent your poem in an abstract way
  • Think about the true meaning of your poem, what is it really about, its essence
  • Talk to me and work with me to improve on your ideas and work
  • Start now or else you will fall behind
  • Be creative and have fun what you are doing. You wrote some amazing poems so be proud to show them off.
