Gr. 3-4 "I Am" Poem Project

An “I Am” poem is one written BY you and ABOUT you. The “I Am” poem expresses the way you feel, what you hope, think, dream, enjoy and so on. Each “I Am” poem contains specific elements in common. The lines in each poem begin the same way: I am, I wonder, I feel, I hear and so forth. Some sentences in the poem describe imaginary sights, sounds and experiences. (That is – they are figurative language!) Other sentences express actual, literal feelings. The first line in your poem – the “I Am” line – is repeated at the end of each stanza. Mamadou Zainab D.
