For a third grade lessons I thought I would try something that relates to the textbook lesson, is kind of educational and would hopefully be fun. Needless to say some students would have none of it. They take pride in being arseholes so that they can score points with their arsehole friends. Others, however, went all out.
The activity involves making a poem using a recipe. When done it resembles a diamond shape, hence the name, Diamond Poems. The formula looked like this…
1 word, known as A (Anonym of B)
2 Adjectives relating to A
3 –ing words relating to A
2 Nouns relating to A
2 Nouns relating to B
3 –ing words relating to B
2 Adjectives relating to B
1 word, known as B (Anonym of A)
My co-teacher and myself chose this team as the winner. I’m sure we used about hte same criteria: was it correct and interesting/cute. The winning team just happened to have written two poems, both good enough to draw our fancy. There are some mistakes, but hey, they are not native speaker and still in middle school.
