KS3 Poetry lessons/ Unseen poetry

KS3 poetry lessons. Lesson one asks students to assess their prior knowledge of poetic devices by using the attached RAG sheet and power point. Students then move on to explore the poem 'Love Is' by Allen Steble in more detail: they look at how metaphors and similes are used and spend some time learning about how to write an effective analysis of poetry. The lessons go on to explore a range of other poems which can be used to develop students unseen poetry skills.
