Teaching Poetry
|
Hi there, Classes are starting in March here and I am just realizing that my first unit will include poetry for secondary students. I know very little about poetry so this won �t be easy for me. I have been googling but everything I find seems to presume that the reader already knows things like alliteration, hyperbole, etc. which I really don �t. Any suggestions for how to get started for a teacher with very little know about poetry? Thanks so much! Esther |

Hi Esther! I did some google research after reading Mary �s post and here you will find powerpoints aplenty about poetry: I hope this may help! |

Hi Esther
In terms of alliteration etc, perhaps google those so that you can learn them first.
Here are some more great links for you to explore:
