Scouts will learn about acrostic poems and work individually or in pairs to write their own.

Resources

Paper
Pens or Pencils

Instructions

1. Explain the Concept: Start by explaining what an acrostic poem is. Share examples and demonstrate how the first letter of each line forms a word.

2. Choose a Theme: Choose a theme for the poems (e.g., "SCOUTS", “NATURE”, “FRIENDS”).

3. Draft the Poem: Allow each Scout (or pair of Scouts) to write their acrostic poem on a piece of paper. Encourage them to be creative with their lines, perhaps relating to their theme or personal experiences.

4. Support Their Work: Walk around, providing support and feedback as they draft their poems.

5. Each Scout will have the opportunity to read their poem aloud. Encourage listening and positive feedback from peers.
