ENGLISH 11 POETRY REFLECTION

My Poem:

This is the poem I created about my hockey stick

Curricular Competencies Reflection:

The overall purpose of this poem was to write about how important hockey is to me, and I chose to write about my hockey stick because it is a really important asset to hockey. My intended audience for this poem was my teacher because it was an assignment that I had to do. This poem is personal and related to me because it is about hockey, and I have played hockey my whole life and is my favourite sport. I have learned so much from hockey and it has got me through life when other things didn’t, so this is a pretty personal topic. When I made this poem, I wanted this to be an interesting poem, so I thought this poem through and tried to add as many poetic devices as I could to try and make it interesting. I used imagery in this poem by using the sight and feel senses to create a detailed and engaging poem.

Creative Thinking Core Competency Reflection

I chose this topic for my poem because I love hockey and it is really important to me, so it would be easy to write about since I know so much about it. I have played it my whole life and the idea came up right away, which I then knew I would write about it. I formed my own ideas because I know so much about hockey, so it was easy to come up with new ideas. I just had to think about how to write the poem, but other than that, the ideas came up pretty easily. Some of my strategies that helped my imagination was to just think of me playing hockey. I would think about what I do on the ice and how I play, and once I had the imagination, it helped me write my poem a lot easier.
