Celebrate National Poetry Month by teaching the elements of poetry to improve and develop narrative writing and meet CCSS in writing and reading. As students learn to write by embedding poetic devices in prose, they also learn to read poetry and other "complex text."
![2013 SUPER STRATEGY SATURDAY WORKSHOP:
April 13 ELEVATING K-12 NARRATIVE WRITING THROUGH POETRY
Donna Loyd, CSWP Associate Director, Presenter
Celebrate National Poetry Month with your K-12 students! Reading and writing poetry
with our classes can be the perfect transition from winter doldrums to end-of-school
craziness. This three-hour workshop will provide not only fresh ideas for teaching
students to read and enjoy poetry but will also prepare participants to help their
writers transfer poetic elements to elevate narrative writing in order to meet important
Common Core Standards, such as “using concrete words and phrases and sensory
details to convey experiences and events precisely.”
Throughout this interactive workshop, participants will try out strategies to discover
the “poet” in each of us. A take-home packet of tried-and-true poetry ideas will spark
students’ creativity—enhancing both poetry and narrative writing skills—and will
provide lessons to jump-start teaching in the Fall.
The workshop will be held 9:00am-noon at AASU University Hall 125.
