Teaching poetry to middle schoolers might seem complicated, but there are so many ways to do this simply and effectively. I have found that my kids (and I) enjoy this unit more than any other unit.   And, I love to incorporate poetry throughout the year so that kids will understand it better and see how valuable it is. If you’re ready to get started, listen here to see how in 5 simple steps.

We will discuss:

  • Why Teach Poetry to Middle Schoolers
  • Using Poetic Devices and Figurative Language
  • Incorporating Poetry Throughout the Year
  • Unique and Fun Ways to Use Poetry in Your Classroom
  • Poetry as Both Reading and Writing Units
  • Sharing Poetry that Kids Have Written
