Purposeful, Transparent, Contextual, Building Expertise

Purposeful and Transparent Listen and reading aloud poetry will help students see how poets use sound to convey emotion and to organize their work by linking sounds at the ends of lines and by linking important words through repetition of vowels and consonants. Contextual By recognizing the use of sounds in poetry, students may begin to recognize the use and impact of the sounds in the words in the world around them--lyrics, ads, TV, and movies. Building Expertise In a process of listening, then reading, and finally speaking, students progress in their recognition of how sound is used to organize and communicate meaning to readers of poetry.
