What ARE Poetic Sound Devices? We learned that POETRY is a form of literature that uses rhythm, rhyme, sound, or structure, to express something in an artistic way. TODAY, we will focus on the SOUNDS of Poetry... the Poetic Sound Devices! You should use your notebook! Sound Devices Watch the video and fill-in-the-blanks. Because wizer.me will only count your answer as correct if you put them in the same order as I do, I listed them in ALPHABETICAL order... no capital letters! The three types of sound devices mentioned in this video are alliteration, assonance, and consonance . Let's INTERACT with that notebook! Use your notebook to determine which definition and which example belong where. Onomatopoeia tick-tock, click, clack, drip, drop, sizzle words whose sounds imitate their meaning Don't beep that horn again The buzz saw rattled and snarled in the yard Alliteration I have stood still and stopped the sound of feet. -Robert Frost the repetition of initial (beginning) consonant sounds in a series of words Brad wore his brown blazer. "Slowly, silently," said the moon. Assonance I must confess that in my quest I felt depressed and restless. -Thin Lizzy the repetition of the same vowel sounds among words Do you like blue? Fleet feet sweep by sleeping geese Consonance all mammals named Sam must be clammy the repetition of the same consonant sounds among words (not limited toinitial sounds) Don't eat in that tent It was difficult riding the lumpy, bumpy road. I will be adding to this Quizlet as we move through our Poetry Unit... I've set a 12.9 second baseline for the matching game... who can beat me?? Quizlet Practice
