Looking for fun activities for the first days or week back to school? This Metaphor Poetry ELA Project is a fun, no-prep project your students will LOVE! It can be completed after state testing or as part of end of the year activities and will be a hit! Perfect for middle school or high school. Students will not only write a poem utilizing an extended metaphor,but they will also get creative in order to present the poem visually for a bulletin board display.

**CHECK OUT THE VIDEO PREVIEW ABOVE!

This is an activity I use in my classroom every year toward the end of the year and I know your students will love it! Although writing poetry can be daunting, this project is highly structured, forcing students to adhere to the parameters and the result is unique and guaranteed to impress once completed.

INCLUDED WITH YOUR PURCHASE:

  • 26 Slide PDF with a step-by-step process of writing a Metaphor Poem

  • Printable Pre-Writing Organizer

  • Printable Poem Writing Template

  • 2 Printable Bulletin Board Banners for Display - color and black & white

STUDENT GUIDELINES FOR USING THIS RESOURCE

Completed with a partner, students will analyze how writers use metaphors in poetry by looking at examples. The PDF provides multiple examples to guide students. They will then read and analyze a mentor poem and utilize the same structure to write their poem. They will love creating their poems and watching their ideas come to life! This well-organized activity allows students to effortlessly become poets, while thinking about concise and precise word choice, counting syllables to create rhythm, getting exposure to high-quality examples, and learning something new! This project should take about 2 weeks, from start to finish and is perfect for display.

***Optional Competitive Element:
I always choose Finalistsbased on poem structure, meaning and how they visualized their metaphor. I then ask another teacher to select 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners. And of course, the winners get a prize!
