The Discovering Poetry Program Worksheet
Below is an example of a completed worksheet completed by a P7 pupil. This is one of a series of worksheets included with the Discovering Poetry Project which all feature an item or creature from the natural environment. In this case, the pupil has chosen a worksheet featuring an owl. The worksheets are single colour for ease of printing out and for colouring in purposes. Worksheet 1 on the left assists the child in the creative writing process by guiding them through a series of questions based on stimulating the 5 major senses of sight, touch, taste, smell, sight and sound. The objective is to use this process to generate idea's suitable for use in a poem. It is important to accompany this with some real life objects such as bird hair etc. Worksheet 2 on the right features the final written poem and displays one of the habitats which can be coloured in for display purposes. Some of the worksheets are available for download at the foot of this page.
