Introductory to Poetry - Full Lesson Links

This is a compilation of 27 29 (so far) poetry lessons. Most of it comes from a teacher in Tennessee who put together an wonderful Poetry curriculum. I used her template and edited her lessons. I have saved the links to her lesson pages as explained in number 4. My edited versions are linked, as described, also.
  1. Introduction here  with links to general poetry knowledge quiz & resources 
  2. Most of these poetry lessons include a lesson plan for teacher.  
  3. The word lesson (on left) is linked back to A Home School Notebook 
  4. The title of the lesson (on right) links back to the original source

    Lesson 4 .......Lesson Plan to review
    Lesson 5........Lesson Plan for Puns
    Lesson 6 .......Lesson Plan for Idioms
    Lesson 11......Lesson Plan on Imagery
    *Teachers should monitor and present lesson 14 from the student page.  Depending on how a teacher is sequencing lessons, this lesson could be presented first, or postponed until the end of the study of all poetic elements, or it might be repeated throughout the poetry study.  
    Lesson 15......Lesson Plan on Theme
    Lesson 24.....Free Verse
    Lesson 25...Where I'm From (guided Free Verse)
    *Teachers should monitor and present lesson 25 from the student page.  Depending on how a teacher is sequencing lessons, this lesson could be presented after lesson 14,  postponed until the end of the study of all poetic elements, or it might appear anywhere  throughout the poetry study.  It would also make a good review of poetry types, elements, and patterns.
    This includes a review of  limericks, haiku, emotional poetry, ballads, and photograph poetry.
    A poetry booklet to illustrate different types of poetry could fit here.
    Lesson 28.....Words and Music
