I use this sheet as an introduction to poetry for those who are reluctant to engage with it.
I ask students to think about songs that make them laugh, make them cry or make them think. Then ask them about songs which are themed around love, death and life. We make connections between the different purposes and themes and consider how the best songs combine the elements together.
We then use this as a starting point for thinking about poetry, and how it uses the same purposes and themes to engage with readers.
This can be enlarged and printed as a display, or used as a starting point worksheet for students to annotate with ideas.
