This Week I completed week 2 task 1 of the Summer Learning Journey. I decided to do both of the task for today. I did the Kick Start and the Step It Up Challenge of the Poetry Slam task for today.
This poetry slam was a bit different from the previous one because we were making a poet using kennings. Kennigns describe what a person,idea, or object is or does. Each line has a simple phrase either a nount + a noun or a noun + a verb. They work like riddles you have to try and figure out what the poet is talking about or what it is descibing.
The Kick Start challenges asked the partipants to write a poet using kennigns to describe a animal that reminds you of summer. I chose my cat Tigress because he loves to sit in the sun and just relaxe and loves to sleep in the summer just like me and my cousins.
The Step It Up challenge was to make a another poem but we had to write it about summer. We first looked at a poem but written about winter but we were writing ours about summer. I had fun doing this task because I reminded me how fun summer is.
