POETS

TO WRITE A POEM

All of you have to write a poem. I know it's not easy to become a "poet" but I'll give you a dossier and you'll realise how easy is to write a short one.

To download the dossier with instructions and activities tick on the title of the entry "Poets" and print it, you'll need it to do the exercises to prepare the poem.

When your poem is ready you'll have to record it. We have to download a free program called "Audacity" and read it aloud and clear.

The poems must be in your blogs at the end of March.
