Lesson 1- I Am From poems (plus video recording to share) Lesson 2- Haikus/Grocery Store Ad Poems Lesson 3- Found Poems/Blackout Poetry Lesson 4- Langston Hughes author study Lesson 5- 5 Senses Poems and Riddle Poems Lesson 6- Two-Sided Poems Lesson 7- Chance Poems (Roll-the Dice Activity, too!)

I will be providing feedback on the poems as well! Whether or not learners are familiar with the poem forms above, this is the perfect time for them to delve deeper into their writing, be creative without fear of judgment, and create meaningful poems! There is no prior knowledge necessary for this course, nor any prior poem-writing experience. I chose poem forms that are easy for learners to complete and are FUN and ENGAGING!

I have been teaching literature and writing to teens for over 25 years. I hold Bachelor’s Degrees in English, Writing, and Secondary Education, as well as a current teaching license. In 2005, I earned a Master’s Degree in Education and continue to take professional development courses annually to refine my teaching practices and stay current with educational trends and new teaching methods. Alongside my work with pre-teens and teens, I am also an English professor at the university level, where I teach writing and literature courses.
During my 21 years as a high school English teacher, I was proud to help our sophomore students consistently achieve the highest reading and writing scores in the state. My teaching approach focuses on building a strong foundation by breaking the writing process into small, manageable steps. I am super patient and encouraging with my feedback and guidance, ensuring students feel supported and confident as they grow in their writing abilities.
My courses are designed to accommodate all types of learners and abilities, providing a supportive environment where every learner can thrive!
