Study Poetry, Love Poetry

By studying the poetic process, students can learn to appreciate the nuances of poetic language. 

Why Teach Poetry?

Poetry can help students understand different perspectives. Learning to write poetry is a transferable skill that will help students write creatively in other ways and styles. 

Why Is Poetry So Hard?

Poetry is emotion in action. The brevity and compression of most poetry can make it very hard to understand.

Students must understand the structure, form, and literary devices to fully appreciate the poem.  

Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words. ~Robert Frost
