.This is how I solved the driving question for the Working with Words Humanities project. The driving question for this project is: How can we represent worldview through poetry?
I will write the answer to this at the bottom of my post. For this project we had to make a book that contained a series of poems and how they relate to worldview .
I also will leave the link to my poetry book at the bottom of this post
This is my review and process of creating the book.
I think that if I were to do it again then I would spend more time trying to get the poems from earlier stages to relate to worldview more obviously.
I think that the book is pretty cool, and I am proud of the final result.
The steps that I took to make this book were:
Poem 1: For this part we had to make poem that in at least some way represented our worldview.
Poem 2: For this part we had to make 3 haikus and a poem using a paragraph or quote from something.
Poem 3: For this part we had to make a poem that let the reader easily visualize the imagery in the poem.
Poem 4: For this part we made a poem that let the reader “hear” what was happening in the poem
Poem 5: For this part we made a poem about a important experience that shaped our worldview.
Poem 6: For this part we made a poem personifying worldview
Poem 7: For this part we made a self-portrait poem
Blog post: For this part we made the blog post which I am doing right now.
As the answer to the driving question, worldview can be easily represented by literature, but worldview is also objective, so you have to make it objective in your poem otherwise it is just your worldview.
I learned a lot about poetry and how to become better at writing in this project. I feel like a major turning point in this project was the imagery poem, as I feel as that poem was much of an improvement from the previous poems I made.
Here is a link to the finished project/book.
Thank you for taking the time to read my blog, and have a great day.
