The larger the island of knowledge, the longer of the shoreline of wonder.

Cinquain

PALLIES
Chummy, happy,
Joking, gelling, sharing,
Four amigos all together,
Friendship.

As Junie B. and her "pallies" have discovered, a cinquain (sin-can) is a five-line poem with special rules for each line. Put a cinquain format on the blackboard as follows:

_____________________Line 1: Title (noun)

______________ ____________Line 2: Two words that describe the title (adjectives)

___________ ___________ ___________Line 3: Three -ing action words (verbs)

________ _________ __________ _______Line 4: Four words that express a thought
or feeling about the title (phrase)

____________________Line 5: One word that means the same thing as the title (noun)

JIA
Cosy, sweet,
Talking, cooking, resting,
No other place's better.
Home.

Jiā (Chinese for "Home").
