Original Poetry Repetition Activity

Repetition is an important part of both poems and speeches. This worksheet offers writers a choice of four different words that they must repeat four times in an original poem. Before writing, review each words, inclusive of any important symbolism, and then have students develop their products. After students complete their poems, they will reflect on how repetition impacts the poem's meaning in a short-answer question response. Check out all of our repetition rhyme teaching resources.
