About this course
Spring celebrates hope and renewal. Through time and across the world, Spring has inspired poets to capture that spirit of the new. Over five sessions you will use some famous (and not so famous) examples of Spring poetry to get you writing poetry. This course aims to help you record what you notice and want to remember about this special time. The course is suitable for beginners, but if you already have some poetry experience, you will also enjoy this course.
During the course, we will cover:
- Using others’ poems as inspiration for your own
- Following existing poems’ structures to build your own
- Using images and memories to ignite ideas for poems
- Using your five senses to write
- Recognising the clues in the shape of a poem – poetic form
- Transferable skills such as active listening, and how to express opinions in a group
