Many teachers like you have told me that poetry is a nightmare to teach because it is overwhelming and hard to understand and explain. Everyone ends up being bored and counting the seconds until the class is over. How are you supposed to get kids engaged with poetry like William Butler Yeats's "The Song of Wandering Aengus"?
Enter: Poetry Lessons! This fun and engaging poetry analysis breaks down the poem in an easy to follow and easy to teach manner. Students will develop a deeper understanding of the poem and an appreciation of the beauty and complexities of Yeats's language and style.
These materials are designed to be convenient and ready to use. They do not require any prep and can be used as an emergency lesson for a sub.
