Writing Course Term 3: Writing Poetry
This term, students will learn about a variety of poetic forms. We will learn how poetic language means we need to bend and break the normal grammatical rules and put this into practice by writing several poems of our own. From haiku and limericks to odes and sonnets, there’s a poetic form for everyone to have a go at!
These tutorials are a blend of direct teaching and students writing. Live feedback and support is given in the moment to help students make good progress and feel confident and engaged.
