Poems: Creative writing


The students write a poem themselves based on a Dixit card.

A number of preparatory steps to invite the students to make associations and evoke feelings with their card, with the hope that this will be expressed in their poem.

A reflection frame has been added at the end.

Finish in class:

  • exhibit all poems,
  • pupils go around and express appreciation for each other's poems.

Because the students use a pseudonym, this can be done anonymously and it does not become a popularity contest.

The students answer two questions as they go round:

  • What do you like about this poem?
  • How do you feel from this poem?
