This assignment is based on Units 5 and 6 in Tutorial Letter 501. Work through
these two units before you attempt the assignment. Answer the questions
below in full sentences.
QUESTION 1
1.1. Define “poetry” in your own words. (2)
Poetry is a form of creative writing that uses language to evoke emotion, convey
ideas, and express one's thoughts and feelings using meter, rhyme, and other
literary devices.
1.2. Discuss two benefits of exposing children to nursery rhymes and poems
for children. (4)
1. Developing language skills: Listening to and reciting poems can help children
develop their vocabulary, improve their grammar and syntax, and enhance their
pronunciation and intonation. It can also introduce them to different literary devices,
such as rhyme, alliteration, and metaphor.
2. Encouraging creativity and imagination: By listening to stories and verses, children
can develop a sense of imagination, creativity, and critical thinking skills. They can
also learn to use their imagination to create their own stories and poems, which can
help them express themselves better and build confidence in their own abilities.
QUESTION 2
2.1. Consider the nursery rhyme below. Which type of rhyme or poem is it?
Give a reason for your answer.
The nursery rhyme "Five Currant Buns" is a type of cumulative rhyme, where the
verses build upon each other and repeat a similar pattern. This type of poem is often
used in children's literature because itS is easy to follow and allows for repetition and
memorization.
2.2. Read through p. 103 of Tutorial Letter 501 and discuss three guidelines to
keep in mind when selecting poems for Foundation Phase learners. (3)

rhythm and repetition, and considering the cultural diversity of the learners. It is also
important to choose poems that align with the curriculum and can be integrated into
lessons.
2.3. Using the table on p. 103 of Tutorial Letter 501, explain in a brief paragraph
