Brainstorming Technology Terms

While searching for poems about technology + art, I came across a lesson plan for Peace Poems at readwritethink.org.  What a great find!  Not exactly what I was looking for, but it inspired me reconsider my approach, because the lesson plan introduced me to Diamante & Acrostic poetry tools.  Using these tools I created 2 poems.  They don't have to rhyme or have any rhythm.


This gave me a great starting point for my ePoem in Scratch, because it motivated me to brainstorm words that relate to technology.  I googled technology images to get my brainstorming started.  I came up with a long list of words just from looking at the image results.


Brainstorming is a great way to get free thoughts going on any topic, so it helps with visualizing and creatively expressing a topic.
