Greetings all,
I’m currently working on a poetry unit in my class so I decided to use an example that I created for a poetry unit. We are writing haiku and then finding images that match the poem. Here’s my example:

Andrew,
I think slideshare is going to be a hit with your students! The text and the visuals working together will no doubt be a memorable exercise for your students. It will be interesting to see what images the students choose to match the intensity and mood of the lines within their individual haikus.
Good luck,
Ryan D
Andrew, what a great idea to support poetry! This might be just what my students need to help them become more interested in this genre of writing. Thanks for sharing it.
