Discovering Genres: Poetry

Description

By discovering the uniqueness of each literary genre, students can better appreciate and comprehend what they read. A wide range of standards-based lessons help students recognize each genre, develop vocabulary, learn reading strategies, practice writing skills, make grammar connections, use graphic organizers, assess what they have learned, and complete culminating projects. The overall goal is to prepare students not only for academic success, but also for a lifetime of reading enjoyment.
