Haunting Poetry: Edgar Allan Poe's "Annabel Lee"
Class experience
US Grade 6 - 9
Beginner Level
Although it's a long way from "5 Nights at Freddy's," Edgar Allan Poe is just as fun and horror-filled. In this horror themed hour, we will read Edgar Allan Poe's poem, "Annabel Lee" together as a class. We will explore unfamiliar vocabulary, look at the gothic/horror motifs, and discuss the parallels between the poem and Poe's life. Then we will look at the poetic structure of the poem (the rhythm, line length, rhyme scheme, use of assonance etc.) as a springboard to make our own...
Students will become familiar with Edgar Allen Poe's poem "Annabel Lee," discuss horror as a motif in the poem, and review poetic tools like rhythm, rhyme and repetition. Students will also produce their own horror themed poem.
The poem "Annabel Lee" is the story of a dead wife with whom the narrator sleeps in her tomb. The poems that we write and share in class will be horror/Halloween themed. Students who are sensitive to horror themes may not be suitable for the class.
