Inhaltsangabe

This cutting-Edge Guide Presents Multiple approaches to teaching poetry at the middle and high school levels. Let's Poem will show you how to preserve the fun of poetry while also developing critical writing and analysis skills, how to introduce your students to the basic formal elements of classic and contemporary poetry, and how to expand their repertoires through the use of digital technology and the Internet. Chapters cover choral reading of poetry, writing about race, jazz poetry and other cultural forms, hip-hop and spoken word poetry, multimodal "remixing" of canonical poems, the use of poems form international settings and authors, and more.

"...On your Mark Dressman Get Ready! Let's Poem!"---From the Forword by Nikki Giovanni, poet

"Preserves the fun of poetry while adding assistance to more rigorous understandings about how poetry is made and the work that it can do. Let's Poem is a great new resource for middle and high school teachers."---Jeffrey D. Wilhelm, author of "You Gotta BE the Book"

"Keep this book ready for that next moment when you wonder what to do when kids report that they hate poetry or when you wonder what to do to make poems live in their 21st century world. This book isn't one for the shelves; it's for your head and your heart and, ultimately, for your students."---Kylene Beers, author of When Kids Can't Read/What Teachers Can Do and NCTE past President, 2009-2010
