A poetry workshop in English for children ages 8 to 11 / Un taller de poesía en inglés para niños de 8 a 11 años
About this Event

Ever wondered how to put on a flibberwump? What does a snorklepot feel like? Is it safe to carry a glooberdash in your pocket? Come and find out in this next session in which we’ll have a go at mixing collage and poetry. First, as we normally do in the workshop, we’ll take a quick look at some examples of poetry that finds its inspiration in made-up words. Then, we’ll create some of those ourselves and hopefully stretch them into verses in order to write a long nonsense poem together. One not to be missed. As ever, previous poetry experience is definitely not a must.

Children must be accompanied by an adult.

Coordinator: Diego Bernalte

Duration: 1 hour
Ages: 8-11
Free activity — sign-up required (maximum 12 participants)
For children with an intermediate level of English or higher

¿Te has preguntado alguna vez cómo ponerte un flibberwump? ¿Qué se siente al tocar un snorklepot? ¿Es seguro llevar un glooberdash en el bolsillo? Ven a descubrirlo en el próximo taller, que tendrá una mezcla de collage y poesía. Primero, como siempre, echaremos un vistazo a textos poéticos que utilizan palabras inventadas, pero que perfectamente podrían existir. Después, crearemos nosotros algunas y con un poco de suerte las estiraremos hasta convertirlas en versos. La idea es acabar con un poema hecho por todos. No hace falta experiencia previa en poesía.

Los niños deben estar acompañados por un adulto.

Coordinador: Diego Bernalte

Duración: 1 hora
Edad recomendada: 8–11 años
Actividad gratuita — inscripción necesaria (máximo 12 participantes)
Para niños con un nivel intermedio de inglés o superior
