Never the less, this is something you could try for sure.
Another thing we tried was Acoustic Poems. You'll know about them for sure. Its when you take a word, and use each letter to write another word or sentence. For example:
M - Motherly,
O - Organized, but
M - Mean (no offense Mom)
But that's just the basic idea. These Poems can be written in two ways: Positive and Negative. For example, lets take my name:
S - Stupid
R - Retarded
I - Idiotic
K - Krazy (wrong spelling, I know, but it was all I could come up with)
A - Arrogant
R - Rascal.
I hope you guessed that that was negative. Now for positive:
S - Smart
R - Radical
I - Intelligent
K - King of Geniuses? ( How does that sound?)
A - Awesome
R - Respect - Getting.
You see?
