<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif;">Introduction/Motivation/Prior Knowledge: <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif;">Talk about the different kinds of poems and also about famous poets such as Edgar Allan Poe, Shakespeare, Langston Hughes, and Emily Dickinson and so on.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif;">Developmental Activities: They will write and turn in a poem using the Poem Creator App. They will try and use words that are outside their norm and also try and not write poems that just rhyme.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif;">Assessment: First they will share their poems with one another and make comments. They will then hand in their poems to me and I will make comments and say what they can do to improve their poems.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif;">Closure: At the end of the lesson we can go over anything they have questions about and also look at videos of poetry contests that they might be interested in. |||| <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif;"> Differentiation ¯ ||
