Part B: Write a poem

Step 1.

Read the two poems provided on the Nature Diamond Poems Sheet, and complete the instructions. Pay attention to the number of words on each line - this is very important for this type of poem!

Taking it further

Get out your art supplies and make your poem in a beautiful picture. Don’t forget to make the words look like a diamond shape!
