This is a full lesson PowerPoint designed for Year 9 creative writing, focusing on writing a nature poem using sensory language. I created this with a weaker class in mind, so it is very structured, step-by-step, and easy to follow, with clear guidance at every stage of the lesson.
The lesson takes students through the process of planning and writing a poem, with a strong focus on using the senses to create effective imagery. Students begin by exploring examples and understanding how sensory language works. They then go outside (or use a visual stimulus if needed) to gather ideas based on what they can see, hear, feel, and smell, before using a structured plan to write their own nature poem.
