Introduction to lesson / Preparation


Activity 1: Warm-up games Choose 1 or more of the quick warm-up games to get your children inspired and engaged in the creation of their poem. Activity 2: Re-capping / Introducing common devices of poetry


Hand out the Poem for Peace resource sheet (introducing the competition further if necessary) and walk through some key devices of poetry with the class. The Poetry Devices Table provides a basic overview of six poetry devices - along with examples around ideas of peace.


Having shared the examples, run through the incomplete version of the table on their resource sheet - one feature at a time - working with the children to create their own examples in pencil. Encourage discussion around this in pairs, small groups or tables as you see fit. Before moving on to each new feature, gather some examples from children and write them on the board, tweaking where necessary. This will provide pupils with a bank of examples ready for their peace poem.
