VIII. Составление синквейна

You know, the Maya were gifted not only in science but also in poetry. I’ll read out a Mayan poem translated into English. I’ll give you this poem and your hometask will be to translate it.

Would you like to feel poets yourselves? I’ll teach you how to write an unusual poem – cinquain.

It consists of 5 lines. I want to show you my cinquain.

Maya –we write one noun to show the topic

ancient sophisticated - we write two adjectives to describe the noun

build farm disappear – we write three verbs to show the action

The Mayan civilization was powerful – a phrase that shows your relation to the topic

collapse – a synonym to the topic
