You may bring Valentines candies -- or other candy if you wish.

Candy Hearts Poetry Project
Materials needed:
construction paper
candy hearts
glue
crayons, colored pencils, pens
scissors
rulers
(jelly beans for odes)

Cut out the construction paper -- perhaps into Valentines.
Decide how to arrange your candy hearts into a poem.
You are welcome to add written words, lines, phrases.
Just use the candy hearts somewhere in your poem.
Use 5 (or more) "Conversation Hearts"
Use one or more of the poetic forms or devices found in our Write Source 2000 textbooks.

The most helpful pages in Write

Source are pages 202 - 207.

Consider using --
rhyme
rhythm
alliteration
onomotopoeia
similes
metaphors
personification
hyperbole

Make this LOVELY and NEAT, even though the poem may be serious or silly.
You will not get points for this unless your writing/printing is NEAT and LEGIBLE, and the final product is in ink. (I suggest writing it out in pencil first, then going over it in ink.)
