Teaching Poetry is a guide to effective pedagogy for getting students interested and involved in talking and learning about poetry.
'Teaching Poetry' tackles one of the areas of teaching English that trainees and newly qualified teachers find most difficult. A refreshing change from books on the market about the writing of poetry in schools, it is a guide to effective pedagogy for getting your students interested and involved in talking and learning about poetry.
"A marvelous complement for Albert Somers's Teaching Poetry in High School (1999) or Lucy Calkins's The Art of Teaching Reading (2000), the book has appeal to those interested in both the theoretical and the practical. Summing Up: Highly recommended. General readers, undergraduate students, graduate students, and professionals." - S. T. Schroth, Knox College in CHOICE
