Bringing Poetry to Life in the High School
Wilkinson, Jill R.; Minter, Sydney A.
Library Media Connection, v22 n6 p40 Mar 2004
Library media staff can hold poetry festivals, which would help in developing the interest of the students in poetry and assist them in displaying their literary talents. Poetry can be studied in classrooms, where students are asked to create tunes and write simple lyrics, participation of the students in reading the poetries loudly in the classroom, and holding poetry workshops can help in providing students with novel, interactive hands-on activities, which will assist in increasing their interest in poetry.
