Small display cards that provide the meaning and an example of the most common techniques found frequently in poetry.
I encourage students to visit the POETREE wall (A wall with a tree displayed, leaves and the techniques surrounding the tree) when they are unclear or have forgotten a technique. This provides students with independence and encourages their default to not always be to ask the teacher.
I have previously used them as packs of laminated cards pinned on the wall in polly pockets, students studying or revising poetry can take a pocket with the cards in to use. Some have even taken them home to support with particular homework pieces.
The display includes the techniques:
-Mood
-Tone
-Emotive Language
-Imagery
-Enjambment
-Simile
-Personification
-Stanza
-Oxymoron
-Hyperbole
-Metaphor
-Connotation
-Cliche
-Rhythm
-Allusion
-Rhyme
-Repetition
-Assonance
-Onomatopoeia
-Alliteration
Can be used for most ages/abilities. Does not act to challenge GCSE stage but simply as a prompt or reminder of basic techniques.
