Poetry triangle- a way to teach poetry

How the poetry triangle works is you pick a topic. Then every word relates back to the topic for example:
Teacher
Passionate Teacher
Busy Passionate Teacher
Stressed Busy Passionate Teacher
Multi-tasking Stressed Busy Passionate Teacher

This is a template that can get the students writing poetry in a simple way that will motivate the students and give them confidence to write poetry. This method was used by Toni Stead.
