Below are line-by-line directions for writing a bio poem:

Lines are numbered
#1.  I am


#2.  Three nouns about which you have strong feelings.  Begin each with a capital letter.


#3.  A complete sentence about two things that this character likes.


#4.  Three nouns that describe what this character likes to see in other people; end with "are important to me."
Capitalize each noun.


#5.  A sentence containing a positive thought or feeling.  It can tell what the character finds acceptable in them self.


#6.-#7.  Sentence in which shows something negative in the character or others, however the sentence must end by showing that out of something BAD can come GOOD.  Use the word "but" to link the bad and good.


#8.-#9.  Each line is a short sentence relating something about which the character has strong feelings--likes or dislikes.  They do not have to relate to each other or to the previous lines you have written.


#10.  End with "This is me" or "I am."
