How does it work?

Your students are stuck in your classroom on Valentine's Day and cannot leave until they solve 5 challenging poetry skills-based tasks about the holiday of love!

• Puppy Love: In the first task, students must fill in the blanks for love-inspired idioms.
• Rhyme Time: In the second task, students must determine the rhyme schemes of classic love poems.
• Shakespeare in Love: In the third task, students must decipher the meanings of Shakespearean love quotes (knowledge of Shakespeare is not required for this task).
• Birthday of my Life: In the fourth task, students must identify the figurative language devices used in the love poem, A Birthday by Christina Rossetti.
• Jig Saw Quote: In the final task, students must assemble a jig saw puzzle to reveal a poetic quote about love.
