CLASS SYNOPSIS 
    • This 5 week course collects all five of my other (5⭐️) poetry courses into one complete unit!
    • In this 5-week complete unit, students will learn introductory skills to understanding poetry by practicing their ability to deeply analyze, think abstractly, understand elements like meter, and be introduced to sonnets

OVERVIEW/DETAILS
    • A zoom lesson complete with lecture and comprehension/discussion questions
    • Practice Poems with open-ended questions (aka homework) will be assigned each week
    • An open-note multiple-choice and short-answer quiz
    • A "final" will be given at the conclusion of the course containing multiple-choice and short answer questions

TEACHING STYLE
    • Student-to-student discussion and interaction
    • I aim to facilitate conversation, protect think-time, and posing questions that provoke deeper thought based on the central text. 
    • I love interacting with my students!  I will be apart of the conversation as well 😁
    • Mini-lessons will be shared to ensure all students comprehend concepts and themes
    • While students will be challenged to think deeply, their perspective will always be encouraged and celebrated.  
    • I hope that students feel as welcomed to think as they are challenged in their thinking. 
    • Down-to-earth discussions and I love an occasional tangent so that learning is organic!

RESOURCES
    • Skeleton notes will be provided for each weeks class
    • Practice Poems with open-ended questions (aka homework) will be assigned each week
