Thirty Days~Thirty Students~Thirty Poems~Day Four

Today’s poem features the life of  Frederick Douglass.  Alison’s poem is an adaptation of the Fibonacci Form ( thank you Greg!) Rather  than to build the poem using the fibonacci sequence with syllables, students build the poem using words and started after the name title (1+2, 2+3, 3+5, and then the persons’ name or one word to describe the person)

Fredrick Douglass

A man

That always believed

He wanted freedom for all

“Never a beast only a slave that believed”


~ Alison A., 4th grade
