Rhyme begins with the last stressed vowel of a line of poetry, and may consist of either one or two syllables, depending on whether or not the last stressed vowel is the final syllable in the line. In Spanish, two-syllable rhyme is called “feminine”; one-syllable rhyme is termed “masculine”. Note that in all of the above examples, the rhyme starts with the primary vowel of the last stressed syllable. Rhyme schemes. Various rhyme structures are possible for a given poem. Fred F.

Atsushi Nakajima – El poeta que rugió a la luna y se convirtió en tigre | Haiku Barcelona Hay libros que te cautivan ya con su título. Si además los acompaña una portada bonita, se vuelven irresistibles. Es el caso de El poeta que rugió a la luna y se convirtió en tigre: nada más verlo, algo nos dijo que teníamos que traerlo a Haiku. Y eso hicimos. Después lo hemos leído con el placer de descubrir a un autor “nuevo”: clásico en Japón, incluso incluido como lectura recomendada en algunos institutos y universidades, pero desconocido aquí. Nakajima se dio a conocer sobre todo gracias a sus cuentos, herencia de sus viajes por Asia y de los gustos culturales de su familia. El lenguaje y su aplicación literaria es uno de los temas predilectos de Nakajima. “Anoche también subí a la cima de la montaña y rugí hacia la luna para intentar que alguien comprendiera mi sufrimiento. Atsushi Nakajima falleció en 1942 a los 33 años, después de haber viajado por China y Corea. En la librería Haiku encontrarás este y otros libros de cuentos japoneses.
Top 10 Education Gamification Examples that will Change our Future New to Gamification? Check out my post What is Gamification & my Gamification Framework: Octalysis Education Gamification in Action. There’s a lot of potential in the field of Education Gamification. I believe that humans have an innate Desire to learn. If you ask children, “What is work?” Clearly there should be a way to help kids learn from what they do best – play. No longer viewed as a mundane process for presenting information while testing for retention and understanding, the modern educational challenge involves tasks of engaging students, stimulating their interests, retaining their attention, and maintaining a positive attitude in a nurturing environment Key to these goals is the effort to maintain a rich communications environment that encourages feedback and reinforcement, not only between the instructor/teacher and students, but also between the students themselves. Education Gamification Example #1 – DuoLingo:Learn a language while translating the Web What about you?

The project is spearheaded by Jefferson-Madison Regional Library, whose staff recruit members of the community—students, senior citizens, local business owners, neighbors, and friends—to distribute poem scrolls throughout Charlottesville. Over 7,000 scrolls are distributed to a local hospital, a children’s museum, libraries, senior centers, nursing homes, and numerous small businesses in the downtown area. They also put together a street team that hands out poems along the Charlottesville pedestrian mall.

Poetry is best when shared, and Poem in Your Pocket Day is the perfect time to surprise someone with the gift of poetry. How did you celebrate?
