If your students struggle to remember what a cinquain or haiku even is, you’re not alone. Poetry terms can feel like a foreign language. That’s why I created Write & Learn: Poetry Anchor Charts + Templates—a toolkit that makes poetry approachable with visuals, examples, and built-in writing support.
What’s Inside
This resource includes:
10 vivid anchor charts that define and model 10 poetry types
Writing templates with structure guides, brainstorming areas, and prompts
A 2-page glossary with student-friendly visuals and terms
Ideas for whole-class lessons, centers, and even sub plans
Why It Works
The charts show exactly what students are expected to do
The glossary helps solidify key terms without being overwhelming
The templates let kids focus on creativity—not formatting
Real-World Use
Assign during National Poetry Month as part of a scaffolded writing unit
Use in ELA centers for independent or small-group exploration
Make it a “Poet of the Week” challenge with one type of poem each time
This isn’t just a poetry pack—it’s a visual writing system your students will return to again and again. Empower your class to write with purpose and personality.
