Teaching Ideas: |
This book is an excellent introduction to haiku. Teachers could give learners cameras and send them off for pictures of their environment to use to write their own poetry. The book encourages a discussion of the relation of words and images. Additional information on haiku is available on these web sites: www.tinywords.com/ and www.big.or.ip/~loupe/links/ehisto/ehisinx.shtml. |
