Room 6 students were challenged to produce a 3-lined Haiku as an optional extra for homework last week.
Haiku poems date from 9th century Japan to the present day. Haiku is more than a type of poem; it is a way of looking at the physical world and seeing something deeper, like the very nature of existence.
Haiku Format:
Line 1: 5
syllables describes the subject.
Line 2: 7 syllables tells of the
action.
Line 3:
5 syllables tells about thoughts or feelings.
