Description
Use this one-page handout to help secondary students analyse and deconstruct any poem. This easy, step-by-step handout is structured in four parts:
- Poetic form and structure
- Language use and effect
- Visual and auditory imagery
- Tone, mood, message and reader interpretations.
I've developed this handout over several years and have found it helped my most reluctant and struggling students to engage with and analyse poetry.
