CLARK — Jackie Grigoli’s third grade class at Valley Road School in Clark have begun a unit on poetry. Students learned about the many poetic devices authors use to make their poetry express their feelings. These poetic devices include: similes, metaphors, hyperbole, alliteration, repetition, imagery, and personification to name a few. In the photo above, third graders Meagan Lambert and Sara Hilton read poetry with a partner as they listen for the author’s use of poetic devices. (Photo courtesy of Clark Public Schools)
