Concrete Poem Template – Crescent Moon
A template for students to write a concrete poem about the moon.
Concrete poetry can be really fun to write when you have the right tools! ✏️
Use this template to introduce your students to the concept of concrete poetry! Your students can use this to draft their poem – the image of the crescent moon will give them some inspiration! 💡
Your students can then take their draft and create an original concrete poem on a separate sheet of paper!
