Year 7 Poetry unit of work

(0)
<p>A powerpoint that works through a unit on poetry, exploring and revision poetic devices, the importance of structure, terminology and types of figurative language with mixed ability groups.</p> <p>The unit begins with a reminder of what Year 7 students know about poetry already - do they know any off by heart? What terminology can they remember - there is a brief quiz with answers to highlight any gaps in knowledge they may have. The ubit then goes on, with supporting worksheets to explore haikus, kennings, personification and similes, encouraging students to write their own. The final task is an analysis of Katy Perry’s ‘Firework’ to explore the effect of each of these devices, and begin to understand how to write about poetry within an essay. This uses a point structure to help lower ability students write about language called TEDWE. Sentence starters are included for this.</p>
