In a literature class, students completed a four-step activity to write a poem using literary devices. The first step was choosing a photo, the second was writing nouns, adjectives, and verbs related to the photo, the third was choosing literary devices, and the fourth was writing a poem incorporating the words and devices. The student chose this activity because they were able to use their imagination to write a poem in a way they had not done before using rhyme. They learned creating poems with literary devices and rhyme can be challenging. While they were pleased with their poem, they felt it could have been extended with more stanzas, devices, and rhymes. They connected the challenge of the activity to the challenge

Poem Experience
1. In Literature class with Pat we did an activity that consisted of doing three steps.The First
one was choosing a photo from your photo gallery of your phone in which you appear and or
in one you did not appear.The Second step was to write according to the photo 5 nouns, 5
adjectives and 5 verbs.And the Third Step was to write a Simile, Metaphor, personification or
a symbol for those 4 we had to choose 2 to write on.And the Fourth and last step was to
write a poem including the 5 adjectives , 5 nouns and the 5 verbs and the two literary
devices you chose in step 3.
I chose this work because I could use all my imagination to write a poem I never imagined I
could write because it had rhyme that was a very big step in Literature that thanks to Pat
now I love it.
From reviewing this piece I learned the challenging exercise that is to create a poem with
literary devices and rhymes.
One thing I still need to work on is the extension of the poem because I would've liked that
the poem had more stanzas, literary devices and rhymes.
The connection I can make with real life is that when I have to play a Rugby match is
challenging for me as to write poems or essays in Literature because both imply a big effort
from my part.And in one I have to train a lot and in the other one pay a lot of attention in
class that in some times is very difficult.
This is my poem:
The Stadium
The stadium is very noisy place because it has the football supporters encouraging.
This stadium has a lot of players playing football and hating the noise.
The football supporters have a lot of passion for the magnificent club.
Peanuts all around the stadium running as football players do in the huge stadium.
This stadium looks looks like a sea full of fish.
And it’s players fly through an endless field.
But when the football team was going to score a goal the referee sentenced offside and the
professional players stopped running.
