Poem Rubric

Poetry is a place where you can be creative within the expectations for a given assignment although some types of
poetry are more formulaic than others. Regardless, the purpose of your experimenting with poetry is to help to
develop your own style. A part of that is being able to identify which devices you are utilizing. As you have
discovered through reading poetry, it is meaningless if it does not impact the reader. To some degree this depends
on the reader, but as your teacher, I promise to come to each piece with an open mind to assess its originality and
creativity. Lastly, yes, conventions still matter, but you can begin to play with them as long as it is clear that it is
purposeful, stick to what you know at first, then use punctuation to develop your style as well. Enjoy the process
and let yourself grow!
