THEMED POEMS: THE MANY FORMS OF LOSS

Download This worksheet explores the many forms of loss we experience on our journey through life. It has been created for secondary students to both reflect on this theme using a wide variety of poetic forms and situations, as well as to apply what they have learnt in producing a meaningful reflection on loss that captures the essence of it and conveys their experience, or observations, powerfully to the reader. There is an accompanying video on my you tube channel: Julie Wright Australian Poet. The QR code on the worksheet will take you straight there. Over the generations, we have prioritized the pursuit of happiness in our lives, but it is important to prepare for those times of pain and challenge that come with all kinds of losses that will inevitably touch us all.
