Harvest Season! What food will inspire student poetry ideas? Take advantage of a great time of year to introduce poetry and have a Tea Party! This assignment introduces 3 types of poems (Couplet, Limerick and Free Verse) that have Harvest Food as a theme. Assignment criteria for each type of poem, as well as the 6 figures of speech to include (metaphor, personification, synecdoche, onomatopoeia, hyperbole, and alliteration), are expanded upon in the Student Assignment. In order to explore student poems together, culminating with a Poetry Teatime, provides the opportunity in a relaxed setting to share some completed Harvest Food poems and special harvest time treats.
