Poetry Terms Transparency Program

For the teacher of poetry, this transparency program will bring the most commonly used terms into focus. Each transparency defines a term, gives common examples, and cites a poem in which the term is used. Terms covered are rhyme scheme, alliteration, onomatopoeia, personification, simile, metaphor, ballad, epic, sonnet, and limerick. The program includes ten transparencies, originals, and teaching suggestions. Grades 5-12.
