An accessible and emotive anthology of poems used to stimulate debate, discussion and empathy on related transactional writing topics.
Lessons focus on approaching and exploring different aspects of the poems, and then using the themes introduced in the poem to explore wider societal topics as a basis of a series of transactional letter writing activities.
Writing foci include writing to persuade, considering specific audiences, effective structure, using sophisticated vocabulary.
The poems explore womanhood, integration, prejudice, definitions of nationhood, homelessness, bereavement, religion and spirituality.
All poems are included in an anthology document and a skeleton SOW is included to be adapted to your departmental pro-forma, or added to as you teach within your specific context.
Full powerpoints included, writing tasks, structured planning lessons, further reading recommendations and some suggested homework tasks. The SOW covers 21 lessons.
This is Part A of a two-half term SOW. Part B focuses on using a further set of poems as a stimuli for transactional writing.
