Creative Writing on Other Languages Workshop 3 Acrostic poems



These can also be created by students who are very new to their foreign language.  These also encourage effective dictionary work.
First, you spell out a word. Then you look in the dictionary for words that begin with each word.  Note the third line includes a more complex sentence.  You don't need to have that there but it is an option for more advanced students.  These examples are my name. You can use real nouns or a topic.       
Moi
Gamine, généreuse, grande, garantie,
Intelligente, idéaliste, idiomatique, illogique,
Laisse les mots tomber comme les perles,
Lamentable, laide, légende, létale

Yo
Graciosa, guapa, gentil,
Intelligente, idéologica, ilusa,
Labré mi propia vida
Larga, laudable y legal.

Ich
Glänzend, gut, gastfreundlich, geduldig,
Intelligent, individuell, infantil, informativ
Laufe ich durch die ganze Hafenstadt,
Lakonisch, lässig, lästig, langweilig und launisch.
