Summary Note "'Naming the world' is a collection of over two hundred outstanding poems, accompanied by five-to-ten minute lessons, that Nancie uses each day to launch her writing-reading workshops. Reading and discussing great poems changes her students: helps them gain perspective on their identities and make sense of their worlds, while honing their skills as critical readers and intentional writers. Poetry is the foundation upon which Nancie's students build excellence as writers in every genre, from finding subjects that matter, to crafting powerful language, understanding why readers want inviting leads and resonating conclusions, recognizing how punctuation gives voice to writing, and developing and supporting a theme." - Back cover.
