The purpose of this unit is to provide students with the resources necessary
teach part of a poetry unit to a class. Students will use the information
that they learn in order to create poetry books.
Poetry provides a unique and creative way for students to express themselves.
This lesson provides students with an additional resource for viewing several
different styles of poetry. In addition to learning about poetry,
students also have the opportunity to utilize technology.
This unit is designed to be used in cooperative groups and with a facilitator
guiding the students. However, the students should be able to navigate
through the Web Quest at their own leisure.
This unit should be used as supplement to a poetry unit, and should not
stand alone.
Students will research sites and learn about various forms of poetry, share
what they learned with the rest of the class and create poetry books.
