No Prior Knowledge Required!

Whether learners are familiar with the poem forms listed above or not, this is the perfect time for them to delve deeper into their writing, be creative without fear of judgment, and create meaningful poems. No prior knowledge or poem-writing experience is necessary. I have specifically chosen poem forms that are easy for students to complete and are fun and engaging.
