Abstract	Middle school pupils tend to enjoy writing verse containing a selected number of syllables per line. A student teacher taught a unit on poetry writing which included a section on writing tanka verse--a 5-line form with five, seven, five, seven, and seven syllables per line. After discovering the characteristics of a tanka from a model, the class as a whole wrote a tanka. Next, students wrote a tanka with a peer, and shared some of their feelings when working with other pupils. Interest remained high as learners read their tankas to others in the classroom. Finally, students wrote tankas as a homework challenge--and 23 of 25 students brought tankas to school. Writing tankas can be one means of having learners develop their own ideas and put them into print. (SR)
