Teach your students about all things poetry with this jam-packed poetry workbook created especially for primary school students.
Poetry Analysis Made Easy!
Teaching poetry in high school is tough enough – and it’s ten times harder in primary school! The texts are too hard, the poems are too boring, or the students don’t have the background knowledge to relate to the content. Then, toss in figurative language, and you’ve got yourself an even bigger mess!
That’s where Teach Starter comes in! We’ve taken the stress out of teaching poetry with our Exploring Poetry Workbook, featuring a huge range of original poems by our resident poet, Stephanie Mulrooney.
Child-Friendly Poems with Figurative Language
