Writing Activity: Bio- Poem
Today students will make a bio-poem using the content in this lesson over people in early Indiana such as the Mississippian people, Rene-Robert Cavelier, Pontiac, or George Rogers Clark.
This is a simple poem written about a person and their life. The class will use the lesson in the book to find out information about one of these people. Students will work with a partner to brainstorm ideas such as adjectives to describe the person, the relationships they had with others, where they lived, and accomplishments. Students will create a poem with these facts. The teacher will create an example poem for the class to see how the writing activity should be completed.
