每週 1-2 小時. Each week students have one video to watch, daily writing activities and one weekly poetry writing assignment. There are also weekly poems to read (or watch/listen to).評估
The more students post in the classroom, the more I'll be able to assess their understanding of the week's topic (like showing instead of telling). Students can always post questions in the classroom if they are unsure of the assignment or need help narrowing down a topic or a title.評分

Every Sunday, students will have access to a video that describes and explains the week's current topic and writing assignments. Week One: This week's videos explains why the writing advice to "show, don't tell" is especially important in poetry. I will post different emotions in the classroom. The students will respond with short scenes that describe that emotion. At the end of the unit, students can post their own short poem crafted from their own chosen emotion without using the word anywhere in the description. I will use the description language clues to guess the emotion the poem describes. Week Two: Students will learn about "Remember" poems that use memory to create strong emotions and vivid images. I will post Remember poems for the students to read and review. At the end of the unit, the students will post their own Remember poem and receive constructive feedback from myself on the images and emotions they've created (specifically using the lessons learned in Week one). Week Three: Students will learn how to use an epistolary or letter poem to express emotions of anger, frustration, or injustice. By the end of the lesson, they will post their letter poem for continued feedback. Throughout the rest of the week, I will post letter poems for students to read and use for their weekly I Spy challenge. Week Four: Students will learn to write an ode to an item that they enjoy and want to praise. I will post odes for the students to read. By Saturday, students will post their ode for the final round of feedback. At the end of class, I will ask students to be brave and record themselves reading their favorite poem that they wrote this week. While it is optional to post a video in the classroom, I will encourage students to take pride in the work they've accomplished and share it in a safe environment for a positive response.

父母的引導和規範
Poetry is emotional by nature and we will be focusing on emotions like sadness, grief, anger, love, etc. I will do my best to make sure all of the poetry examples are age appropriate and abide by Outschool's guidelines, but students could expect to see some raw emotions and uncensored emotional writing from the optional examples to view.
供應清單
I will be posting many online links for the students to read poems or listen to them as spoken word on YouTube.

I have a Master's Degree in Writing for Children and Young Adults and recently spent time exchanging poetry with poets from my graduate school. I have always been drawn to reading and writing poems and novels-in-verse. I have poems published in the Young Adult Review Network, Proud to Be: Volume 3, The Louisville Review, and the Round Table Literary Journal. I love when my students want to learn more about poetic elements. This group is a super fun way to experiment with poetry in a safe environment and help young writers understand that they don't have to be scared of poetry. It isn't only for adults and it can be a really awesome way to express yourself.
