BIOPOEM

Carlene

Demanding, humorous, thankful, trusting

Wife of Fred Sanguine, mother of Joey and Melina

Who loves family, friends and standing up for what she believes in

Who loves it when her students smile, loves it when the dinner table

is full,

and enjoyed proving people wrong

Who fears losing those I love most, what it will be like when Joey goes

to

college and dropping Melina off on her first day of preschool

Who discovered that being a mom is a tough job but wouldn’t trade it

for anything

Who wants to see my children discover the world with open eyes and

enjoy every second of it

Born in New York and lives in Waxhaw

Practice: Write a Biopoem describing yourself.

Apply: Pick either Alfons or Helen to write a biopoem about.

Pick from lines 2-9 in the biopoem to create/illustrate a symbol that represents either Alfons or Helen.

You must use color and write a paragraph explaining the symbolism and how it matches the character you chose.

REMEMBER: YOU ARE SYMBOLIZING A LINE FROM THE POEM AND NOT JUST A CHARACTER
