Recently, we did Cinquians as summaries for some stories we read. Cinquains are structured as follows:
The first line is the subject line
Second line - a two word description of topic
The third contains an action related to the topic
The fourth line is four words containing emotion and providing insight
The fifth line is synonym for the first line
Here was my example:
Teenagers
Lost Sheep
Exploding with Anger
Infuriating, reaching for acceptance
Chaos
My kids actually thought it described them very well. Of course my seniors said it described them years ago... I let them have their pride.
