Activity 2

This activity requires collaborative learning and confirms students' understanding of the poetic devices they acquired in Activity 1. It also introduces them to some well-known poetry and has them apply their new knowledge to more  poems of more classical literary value.

  1. Students will be put into groups of 2-3 people. Language and academic levels will be mixed.
  2. Each group will choose 3 poems from 7th Grade Poetry Online and locate at least 2 lines that match each of the poetic devices they learned in Activity 1.
  3. Each example will fill the example space on the Poetic Device handout from Activity 1.
  4. The completed handouts will be collected and graded as the summative assessment.
