How to Use Your Harmony Week Poem Printable

Discuss and brainstorm the meaning behind Harmony Day with your students, and then brainstorm different words that start with each of the letters in the word harmony. Once the students have completed their harmony acrostic poem, you can also have them draw an image that represents the words they have chosen to complete their acrostic poem. 

What Are the Benefits of Acrostic Poetry?

Using the letters in a topic word to begin each line of a poem, acrostics are a creative way for students to write about what they’ve learnt on a particular topic, or their own thoughts about a topic.

The acrostic poetry structure works as a scaffold for students that allow them to develop their ideas and choose interesting words to share their thoughts. .
