This book is a resource tool designed for teachers looking for practical ways to teach and include poetry in an already over-crowded curriculum. It explains the importance of poetry to children's learning development and offers a wealth of ideas for getting children to listen to, recite, read and write and reflect on poetry - both its form and its content. Written with the requirements of the National Curriculum in mind, this book has a cross-curricular emphasis designed to give competence and confidence to teachers unused to teaching poetry. Time-saving photocopiable packs are included to stimulate lively classroom work.
