WEEK 2, CALIGRAMS
Here is our final writing task this week. (Because you also have to do quite a bit of reading. Are you reading? HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM)
Look at Liz PIchon, who writes books for kids a bit older than you, explaining caligrams
Actually, Caligrams are often made of many words, and they take the shape of what the words are about. LIke this:
Now for the exercise. Take paper and pencil and walk around the house. Trace or copy the SHAPE, JUST THE OUTLINE, of at least five different objects in your house. You can put a fork on the paper and trace it, you can copy the chimney, anything you want. Just the shape, in pencil.
Great! Now choose the shape you like best.
ANd now fill it up with words!YOu can make sentences, like filling up the chimney shape with how much you like the winter, or watching the fire. Or you can just fill it up with hot fiery words like spark and sizzle.
As always, if you want, get your family to send me a picture!
