There are various forms of poetry, including traditional rhyming poems or non-rhyming ones. Haiku is a form of Japanese poetry containing three lines: the first line has five syllables, the second has seven, and the third has five. The Bible is full of poetry as well, though it is in a form unfamiliar to most English speakers. Biblical poetry repeats an idea using different words. Consider the full text of Psalm 136:7-9 (NKJV):
- 7 al que hizo las grandes lumbreras,
- porque para siempre es su misericordia:
- 8 el sol para que señoree en el día,
- porque para siempre es su misericordia;
- 9 la luna y las estrellas para que señoreen en la noche,
- porque para siempre es su misericordia.
Notice how the first line speaks of the great lights, and is followed by a verse meaning the same thing, but with different detail. Also notice how "For His mercy endures forever" is repeated between each expression of the idea.
Consider this quote: “I can think of no other edifice constructed by man as altruistic as a lighthouse. They were built only to serve.” George Bernard Shaw.
You might look into the history of lighthouses. The Romans built many lighthouses. The lights were often extinguished for they might attract Vikings. Search for stories like this one http://www.economist.com/node/12792727 and then put your own version together. Have fun with this.

- a. Hacer una lista de los nombres y los lugares de cinco faros en su estado o provincia.
- b. Localizar en el mapa la ubicación de diez faros en su país/provincia.
The International Association of Marine Aids and Lighthouse Authorities is a good resource to check out for meeting this requirement.
The U.S. Park Service has an Inventory of Historic Light Stations which lists lighthouses from all over the United States, though this inventory is by no means exhaustive.
The Canadian Coast Guard has a List of Lights, Buoys and Fog Signals.
The US Lighthouse Historical Society has lots of info and runs the Lighthouse Passport Program required in the Advanced Honor.
Another way to find lighthouses is by using an Internet search engine using the terms "Lighthouse" and the name of your locality. If you cannot find five lighthouses in your state or province, you may have to expand the search and find ten lighthouses in your division instead.
