Cinquain Poem

We have been learning to write cinquain poems to help us strengthen our connections to description. A cinquain poem has 5 lines.

Each line has a different purpose. Line 1 is a noun which is a name. Line 2 has 2 adjectives taht describe the noun.

Line 3 has 3 verbs that end in ‘ing’ and describe the actions. Line 4 is a noun phrase which is a group of words (not a sentence) that go together to describe the noun. Line 5 is a synonym which is a word with a similar meaning to the noun.

I enjoyed this activity because it gave me a chance to find out new Adjectives & Verbs.
