STEP INTO THE GED
Unit Project: Poetry

Decide on a thing you want to write a poem about.  It can be a mountain, an animal, a plant.  It can be anything that has a recognizable shape.  Write meaningful descriptions about it that fit its shape. 

Notice that poetry often uses incomplete sentences – it’s OK here.  However, don’t do this in any other type of writing.

Hint:  You may want to use a simple drawing to help you fit your ideas into your object’s shape.  You can see the faint lines for the tree behind the lines of the poem about a tree.
