In the first room, the students described a strong image of something that they had seen outside in nature. In the second room, they described light and colours associated with their image and in the third room sounds they might have heard. The fourth room was for any questions about their image, the fifth room for writing feelings and the sixth room for repeating words. In the final draft, the students could use any or all the rooms to create a poem.\u00a0Here are two examples of the stunning six room poems written by the grade 6\/7 class.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">THE VALLEY<\/p>\n<p\n\n<address style=\"text-align: center;\">A beautiful valley down below<\/address>\n<address style=\"text-align: center;\">A valley with the greenest grass<\/address>\n<address style=\"text-align: center;\">A field of Welsh flowers so yellow<\/address>\n<address style=\"text-align: center;\">The surrounding world crowned with radiant light<\/address>\n<address style=\"text-align: center;\">Smothered in the sound of peace<\/address>\n<address style=\"text-align: center;\">Speechless by the power of<\/address>\n<address style=\"text-align: center;\">Nature and its amazing features.<\/address>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">THE WONDERS OF THE VIBRANT SUN<\/p>\n<address style=\"text-align: center;\">A fire like ball<\/address>\n<address style=\"text-align: center;\">Sinking into the plains of Africa<\/address>\n<address style=\"text-align: center;\">Casting its vibrant light onto the land<\/address>\n<address style=\"text-align: center;\">Creating shadows behind anything in its path,<\/address>\n<address style=\"text-align: center;\">All you can hear is the brushing of trees,<\/address>\n<address style=\"text-align: center;\">And the movement of wild animals, taking everything in.<\/address>\n<address style=\"text-align: center;\">It made me wonder why in Africa the sunset is so unique.<\/address>\n<address style=\"text-align: center;\">And then it was gone, leaving behind a beautiful bright sky<\/address>\n<address style=\"text-align: center;\">Full of oranges, reds and yellows.<\/address>\n<address style=\"text-align: center;\">Spectacular,<\/address>\n<address style=\"text-align: center;\">Spectacular,<\/address>\n<address style=\"text-align: center;\">Spectacular&#8230;<\/address>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Six room poems began with students writing a draft on a paper divided into six sections or rooms.
