Hi Nicole, I really liked how you connected the video on poetic devices to an interactive learning design. The idea of moving beyond just watching the video to having students actually try writing their own poems is such a good way to turn theory into practice.

I also thought your point about adding captions and giving students different ways to respond (notes, discussion, or oral sharing) was really important. It shows you’re thinking about inclusion from the start, not just as an afterthought.

One thing I was curious about: if you wanted to make the activity even more interactive, could students share their creative pieces with peers and give each other feedback? I think it might add another layer of engagement and help them see how others use poetic devices differently.

Your post gave me some ideas for my own resource—I’m working on resilience and stress management, and I realized I could also add short creative reflections or peer sharing to make it more engaging. Thanks for the inspiration!
