EDUT 5200 Poetry in the Classroom
Poetry in the Classroom
Transform your classroom from poetry on the page to poetry to engage! Poetry provides a space for students' voices to be heard and for them to listen to the voices of their peers. But how do we do it? As Shakespeare would say, “fear not!” In this course, you will discover the ways that poetry supports both academic skills AND social-emotional learning (SEL). Regardless of your teaching context, you will engage with poetry materials and resources from a variety of grade levels (elementary and secondary) and across all subjects so that you can celebrate poetry in every classroom you enter. By the end of this course, you will have the tools needed to effectively implement poetry instruction in your classroom. Write on!
