Concrete poetry
How to write concrete poetry:
Concrete poetry is also known as shape poetry. A concrete poem describes a person object or animal. The cool thing about it is that your poem is in the shape of the thing that your poem is about! A concrete poem can use full sentences and it doesn’t need to rhyme. You will usually find alliteration or similes (comparing things with like or as)in the poem. You can also choose to add imagery and metaphors(a direct comparison between 2 things).
Here is my Christmas concrete poem:
Limericks week 3
A limerick poem always has 5 lines. The first second and fifth line always rhymes (rhyme scheme; AABBA). Limericks are usually a bit silly or funny. They are made for you to laugh or smile at when you read them. When read aloud or even in your head there is a little beat inside the poem.
This is my limerick poem:
A giant green hairy mouse
Now lives in my house
I thought there was one
But it had only begun
Because it turns out, he had a spouse

Acrostic poems
Did you know the first types of acrostic poems started in Ancient Greece? Since then there have been lots of different types of acrostic poems. The first one (the main type of acrostic poem that everyone knows) is simply just called ‘acrostic’. It is the poem that the start of each word/phrase forms a message or word. The second type is similar to the acrostic one. It’s called ‘The Telestich’. Instead of the first word spelling a message/word it is the last letter that makes the message. And the final one I’m explaining is ‘The Mesostic’. This one uses the middle of a word or a sentence to form a message/ word in the middle.
Here are 2 different types of acrostic poems I did(the first is ‘acrostic and the second is ‘The Telestich’)
F lashing colours everywhere, then fading into darkness
I ncredible show of lights,lighting up the sky
R emarkable sight to see, up in the starry night
E nchanting to look at
W ondeful feeling inside of you
O n many holidays and celebrations
R rally loud when close by
K ids love them
S tanning in awe at the amazing sight, high up in the night
Cinquain poetry
There are 2 ways of writing a cinquain poem. The first on is using syllables. The first line has 2 syllables, the second 4, the third 6, the fourth 8 and the last, back to 2. The other type of a cinquain poem is just using words. The first line is one word (usually the subject), the second line is 2 words(adjectives to describe the topic), the third line is 3 word (verbs usually ending in ‘ing’), the fourth line has four words (a phrase to show emotion about the topic) and the fifth and final line had one word(synonym of the first word/topic)
Here is a cinquain poem I made about nature:
The stars of our galaxy
Introduction
Did you know that some of the biggest stars in the Universe can engulf Saturn? Stars are very important to us humans, as they make life on Earth. The information here will make you a star expert with information that will vary from the Sun to constellations.
The sun
The Sun is the only star in our solar system! It seems massive compared to other planets, but it is only a dwarf star with the diameter of 1.4 million kilometres! To humans the sun appears yellow or orange to our eyes but all colours mixed together it is actually a white colour believe it or not. All the other 8 planets of the solar system orbit around the sun.
What they are made of
Stars are extremely dense objects. They consist of mostly hydrogen a bit of helium and other elements. Every star will have different amounts of the elements. Scientists estimate that there are about 100 billion stars in our Milky Way. Thats a lot!
Constellations
A constellation is a cluster of stars that forms an image or shape on the sky. But not every star is a part of a constellation. Each of the Zodiac signs have its own constellation. The word “constellation” comes from a Latin term meaning “set with stars”.
Conclusion
It is very important to know about the solar system and stars because we need to know about the environment we live in as it is always changing. This information report talks about the Sun, what stars are made of and what constellations are. But if you would like to know more about stars you can visit the website NASA.govt or NASA kids club-NASA.
