These differentiated resources introduce students to Haiku, Tanka and Renga Japanese poetry by examining the form, use of syllables and environmental themes. The PowerPoints and accompanying worksheets are highly scaffolded and would work well in both a mainstream and Support classroom setting.

Students are provided with a modelled descriptive task where students are required to manually or electronically highlight the figurative techniques used. Students are then required to create their own descriptive passage using these techniques.
