Introduction

Welcome Fourth Graders!

Is everyone ready to begin our Poetic Journey? Be sure to turn on your creative thinking caps, and get ready to explore the world of poetry. Just wait until you uncover all of the amazing information that is waiting for you on the world wide web!   You will learn about poetic terms, such as simile, alliteration, and metaphor. You will also explore four different types of poetry. These types of poetry are called haiku, cinquain, diamante, and acrostic. Once you learn about these different types of poetry, you will have a chance to become a poet yourself and write your own poems. A fun scavenger hunt is also included in this webquest. For the scavenger hunt, you will search the web to find answers to questions.

This poetic journey is going to be so much fun!

Get ready, get set, GO!!!
