Free Introductory Video to the “Poetry Through Song Unit”
I love teaching poetry! I love it when my student like learning it too.
So many students dislike poetry that I wanted to create a unit just for them. This unit takes a different approach to teaching poetry all while allowing students to be critical of the songs they hear on the radio. This unit teaches the same skills as traditional poetry units do, but does it in a lighter way.
This video introduces the “Poetry Through Song” unit available for purchase.
