Summary Note "This book by educator and author/poet Sally Murphy is primarily intended for primary teachers of the Australian Curriculum: English, to support planning to teach poetry specifically, and literature, literacy and writing more broadly. It offers ways to teach and share the reading and writing of poetry while showcasing a variety of poems that can be loved and used in the classroom. By demystifying the language of poetry - poetic forms, techniques and language devices - this book aims to enable teachers - and, through them, students - to understand how poetry works, how to unlock its meaning and how to write it. Above all, the message is that poetry can be a pleasure to teach, read and write, for teachers and students alike. Chapters 2 to 8 are year-level focused, spanning Foundation to Year 6. Each chapter unpacks key terminology and offers activities that can be implemented in the classroom, poems that can be used as classroom texts, and suggested resources. Chapter 9 consists of annotated lists of poetry texts, verse novels and other resources that can be used across the school years." - Back cover.
Subject Poetry -- Study and teaching (Primary)
