Throughout the course, students will develop personal writing portfolios and may utilize a specific piece of work from it to curate or contribute to a final creative project that showcases their full understanding of the course's content. Additionally, students will be tasked with researching the life/legacy of 1 Black woman or girl poet and curating a short reading map (concept will be explained in class) and/or developing a draft course syllabus. This will demonstrate the student's ability to synthesize the artist's work alongside their personal learning style/process.我們無法翻譯此文，請刷新頁面並再試一次。

美國 9 - 12 年級
In 'Poetry, Passion & Purpose: Black Women, Girls, & The Art of Poetic Expression', students will explore 20th and 21st century poetic art written by Black women and girls to foster discussions on the state of Black girlhood, womanhood, racism, and self-expression. Throughout the course, students will develop an extensive poetry/writing portfolio of their own while utilizing various poetic structures (stanzas, alliteration, assonance, couplets, free verse, figurative language, prose, rhyme scheme, etc.) and art forms learned throughout the duration of the class. In-class activities will include a dedicated 'Spoken Word or Creative Art Expression' Day, playlist curation and group research. Homework assignments are independent (with on-going instructor assistance available) and will teach various research methods and literary/poetic writing skills while fostering confidence in written self-expression and poetic analysis. They will receive digital copies of most poems and class readings but should print them if possible. Printing these writings will ensure that students are able to carefully take notes, analyze, critique and understand various poetic devices, sentence structures and political/personal meanings utilized by the author. This class meets twice weekly for approximately 6 weeks and is structured to intensively engage students in a wide range of poetic and literary work. Some texts will be read in full while others will only reference selected poems. Course Reading will include full texts and select poems from: • Nikki Giovanni • Gwendolyn Brooks • Margaret Walker • Maya Angelou • Ebony Stewart • Lucille Clifton • Mahogany L. Browne • Elizabeth Acevedo • Olivia Gatwood. • Safia Elhillo • Amanda Gorman • Tatiana Mary Rebecca Johnson • Eve L. Ewing • Jasmine Mans • Warsan Shire • Nayyirah Waheed • Idrissa Simmonds

Students will strengthen their understanding of poetic devices/structures (stanzas, alliteration, assonance, couplets, free verse, figurative language, prose, rhyme scheme, etc.), literary craft and of course, the diverse repertoire of Black women poets throughout the 20th and 21st centuries.

Politically and culturally sensitive topics will be discussed each week of class with some topics being heavier than others. We will routinely approach highly sensitive topics including state-sanctioned violence, police brutality, criminality and systemic oppression. The course educator has undergone significant Diversity, Inclusion and Sensitivity trainings to properly support students in understanding and processing this information. Sessions where tough topics will emerge will be preceded by a content warning.
Google Drive/Classroom/Suite Apps: Google Drive & Classroom will only be used during our allotted class time to access relevant course content.
Quizlet: Students will utilize Quizlet to review important terms.
Spotify: Students will frequently engage with Spotify (during class) to curate playlists that align with selected poems.
YouTube: Students will engage with historical videos and interviews on relevant topics. Links will be provided in a curated playlist.
The Smithsonian Magazine is a great resource for students to independently engage with as they pursue research for course projects and activities.
The 1-2 hours outside of class are not to be spent working within Google Classroom/Suites, but to read & engage with the next session's assigned reading.
