A poetry strategy that works for upper elementary
Teaching upper elementary students to comprehend poetry doesn't have to be impossible. The POETS acronyms is an easy-to-remember, versatile strategy that will support students in reading poetry and understanding! Students analyze poetry for the speaker, occasion, emotions, themes, and basic structures. They figure out the type of poem, too. Build the anchor chart together and apply the strategy in your next postry lesson. #poetrylesson #poetrylessonidea
