This course will focus on some of the great poets as well as introduce and expand knowledge on various poetry and writing styles. Each week we will discover a new poet and read aloud poetry. There will be activities in class to create new works individually and collaborate with others. We will build a poetry journal with selections from our favorite poems. This will also give students an opportunity to work on penmanship and presentation. Our final project will include memorization and presentation of a poem of their choosing.
