This unit of poetry is created for KS3 - year 7… but could work for any year group.
Students will regularly review and develop their knowledge of poetry techniques (being able to identify, and use) and use infamous art works as inspiration for their own writing . Links are within the ppt. to access quizlet activities.
For the ‘Weeping Woman’ lessons, students will learn a little about Picasso’s inspiration for the art work and brainstorm the significance of colour, and senses evoked; before planning, and writing, their own creative piece.
I have found this unit to work particularly well with low language learners but equally would engage more confident language students.
These lessons are part of a bigger unit with the assessment being:
ASSESSMENT TASK:
Based on the piece of art that you have selected:
ANSWER ONE OF THE FOLLOWING
EITHER:
Write a narrative or piece of descriptive writing about your chosen piece of art
OR
Write an ekphrastic poem using your chosen piece of art as inspiration
