Today, I'm sharing a poem I wrote during Laura Shovan's birthday month Pantone color poetry challenge. You can find out about it here. There are several who have shared poems using HaikuDeck, so I decided to try it out. I found it very easy, and while I could have used more pictures, I enjoyed the process. This poem was silly, and the color prompt was "silver bullet". You'll see the "why" of the poem when you read.

I remember this poem. The only issue I have is it becomes an ear bug. I'll sing "Home on the range" all day now. I love the idea for students of taking a song and writing new words. It's a way to make them brave. This haiku deck is great. I wish our district didn't block the images.
ReplyDeleteDo they block all images, Margaret. These are from Photo Pin, but I could easily have brought them from Wikimedia Commons. Sorry about the blocking. I'm enjoying seeing what others are doing with tech!
DeleteWhat a fun poem and experiment with Haiku Deck!
ReplyDeleteThanks Holly. For presentations, Haiku Deck was very user friendly!
DeleteFun stuff Linda. Love how you mixed up the inspirations with the media. On my list to try. Trying now....
ReplyDeleteTerrific, hope you find it user easy, too, Julieanne!
DeleteI learned about Haiku Deck from Kevin also. :) I haven't used it with my kids, but I'd like to try. Love your poem and the images that go along with it.
ReplyDeleteThanks Julie.I think your students should be able to use it fairly easily. There are just a couple of choices to make, plus uploading pictures.
DeleteHurray for you, trying something new! And it turned out really well! I've been amazed this month, that Kevin not only manages to write a terrific poem, but also creates some kind of digital production, using a different app, pretty much every day! I can't even get a decent poem written most days!
DeleteI know, I'm rather stretched, too. This, as you see I've said earlier, was pretty easy-took time to find the right pics, but then everything else was good. Have a good week, Carol!
DeleteFun! Good for you for trying all these fun tools. Haiku Deck isn't supported by IE, so I'll have to pass for now. Liked the way you worked around the silver bullet topic!
ReplyDeleteThank you-those color prompts were fun to do.
