• Always do a rough draft of a poem or song. • Do not worry about making it rhyme. It

doesn’t matter if it doesn’t all flow and isn't perfect as it is only a practice.

• If your not sure about your poem/song ask the person next to you to listen to what you have done.

• If you are listening to a persons poem, it would be helpful to give tips on how they could improve it.
