Spindletop
Acrostic



We would like for you to create an acrostic about Spindletop using all the things you learned from our website. We will post your work on our website with your name, age, city, and school.

You may be asking: "What is an acrostic?" Well, an acrostic is a special kind of poem. Usually, you take one word, such as "Spindletop", write the letters so that they go down the page instead of across the page. Then think of something that has to do with the theme word that starts with each letter of that word. See the example below using the word acrostic.

A poem that
Can be read across and
Read downwards. The first,
Or last, or another
Specific letter will
Tell its own story
In a word, a name, or a
Catch phrase.

by Lewis Carroll

See other examples.
