The document outlines a lesson plan for 11th grade students in Évora, Portugal focusing on poetry. The lesson involves students identifying feelings about poetry, exploring and describing the emotions conveyed in poems by two Portuguese poets, and creating new lines in the style of one poet using graffiti techniques. Students will work individually, in pairs, and as a whole class, reading poems, discussing them, and illustrating them using art supplies. The goal is to assess the learning process rather than results by having students reflect on what they liked and disliked.
