Let me solve that problem for you! I have 3 units designed to specific grade level Common Core standards. In addition, I have created monthly poetry literacy centers to keep your students enjoying poetry all year. Each unit has over 170 pages of detailed lesson plans, assessments, student pages, exemplars, and wall display materials. The lessons provide an essential question, objective, common core standard, procedures, and assessments. (Keep reading for FREEBIES and to ENTER the GIVEAWAY for a free unit and April Literacy Center!)
I know many of us fear poetry and symbolism, but poetry is so much FUN and it is the perfect outlet for creativity after spending the morning taking a standardized test. Your students will be engaged, you will have lesson plans taken care of, and ALL of you will be able to have fun, relax, and enjoy finding a new found love of poetry!
Each unit contains:
- Over 5 WEEKS of Lesson Plans aligned with reading, grammar, and writing standards.
- A 40 + page Student Handbook that gives visuals for all lessons, handouts, and poetry templates.
- Rubrics for Research Poem, Unit Portfolio, and Poetry Choice Board.
- Poetry Choice Board Activity
