Haikus

Haikus are a form of Japanese poetry that have 5 syllables in the first and last lines and 7 in the middle line - a total of 17 syllables. We found that they were tricky to write as we had to keep coming up with different ways of saying a sentence as some had too many syllables and some not enough. Our class perservered though and the results are great!
