As we discuss many of these poets their life experiences that inspired their works will be discussed to provide historical context. Some facts may arise that could be troubling or disturbing to a sensitive learner; for example, discussions about cultural appropriation, racism and feminism, tragic deaths of particular poets, etc. These details are handled in an age-appropriate manner and some are not included in the lesson; however, other learners in class may be aware of these details and might bring them up in class, so please consider this prior to enrolling and contact me with any questions.
