Just like Karen Beaumont in her book I Ain't Gonna Paint No More!, you will try to use internal rhymes.
The internal rhymes in Jasmine's poem (above) have been written in bold for you to see easier. Think you can do that too?
Your teacher should have given you a worksheet that helped you come up with some words that might rhyme in your poem's first and second lines. Be sure you use that worksheet! It'll really help.
To come up with ideas for words that might make internal rhymes for your poem's third line, press the button below. If you can think of different words to use in your third line, you certainly can.
If you finish one four-line poem and others are still working on theirs, try writing a second poem. It might even turn out better than your first one! |
