Magnetic Poems - 2 - Poetry Slam - Summer Learning Journey Rua Tekau Ma Waru

Today for Summer Learning Journey we had a Poetry Slam task. We had to make magnetic poems. I really liked this so I tried to do another one.

Did you know that Magnetic Poetry was invented by Dave Kapell, who was a songwriter? He wrote words on pieces of paper and rearranged them, hoping to use it as a starting point for lyrics. To keep the arrangements of words from being accidentally disturbed, he thought to glue the paper to magnets.

I enjoyed making the poems because I could write whatever I want. It was also hard to make the poems because I only had certain words to use. I made sure that I had a bit of a plan before making them so it was much easier knowing which words are where.

Thank you for reading my blog. Here is my magnetic poem number 2:
