Product description

From the author

This resource is a set of learning posters and graphic organizers for haiku poetry writing.

There is a poster to teach about haiku poetry. Students will explore features of this poetry writing.

They will then write haiku poems. There are many templates to choose from.

This pairs well with your poetry unit in English class. You may also love to print these off and use in a center activity.

Teaching tips & learning objectives

Learning objectives

  • Identify the packet’s five-seven-five pattern for a three-line poem.

  • Draft an original haiku using the syllable-labeled rough-draft organizer as scaffolding.

  • Produce a finished, titled haiku on a "Poet" byline template.

Teaching tips

  • Read the model poem on the instructional page aloud and count its syllables line by line before students draft their own.

  • Start students on the syllable-labeled organizer pages, then move them to the blank-line templates once they no longer need the numeric scaffold.

  • Pair the two "Poet" byline pages with a simple publishing step, such as reading finished haiku aloud or posting them on a board.

Skills covered

  • Syllable counting — students count and match five, seven, and five syllables to fit each line of the pattern taught in this packet.

  • Haiku composition — students draft an original three-line poem following the syllabic pattern modeled on the instructional page.

  • Draft-to-final revision — students move from an "Ideas"/rough-draft organizer to a titled, finished haiku on a separate byline page.

Good to know

Questions teachers ask about this resource

How can I reduce the syllable-count support?

Begin with a planning page that labels the line counts. Move to an open-line template after students can apply the pattern independently, then use a byline page for a finished poem.
