Description
Class Experience
Keats, Wordsworth, Shelley, Coleridge; all great masters, among others, of the Ode. They praised nightingales, duty, the West Wind, a true love… What would they immortalise in an ode if they lived today? Their favourite pizza topping? (You decide if pineapple is ode-worthy or not!) The joy of finding their lost sock? A nice cold drink of Coke/ Pepsi (other soft drinks are available for ode writing purposes!) Odes are an important part of understanding poetry but they can sometimes be so,...
Students will: Briefly explore the background of the ode Look at the features of an ode and how it is constructed Learn how to write their own If they choose- experience sharing their work and enjoy a little ham-acting in reading it out.
Writing is my passion and as well as majoring in English at university, along with Theatre Arts, I've almost 20 years of experience in teaching English in primary schools. Over those years, I have worked regularly with groups of children specifically on English writing skills and teaching creative writing online.
