About This Product

Poetry Writing Sub Plans — ELA — TEN Print & Pass Lessons

This detailed set of succinct poetry writing lessons equips educators with all the required materials for ten classes led by a substitute teacher. Just print the easily accessible substitute note and the lesson sheets, which also incorporate a beneficial peer review worksheet, and you're good to go. The rest can be effortlessly handled by your substitute teacher and pupils! And what's more, your students will be able to continue honing their imaginative poetry writing skills even when you're not around!

Here's how simple this sub plan series is to present: Simply print out and sign the included sub plan note, make copies of one of the 10 poetry writing worksheets included in this resource, and leave them on your desk for your substitute. While student familiarity with the poetry concept is helpful, the handouts directions will be more than enough information to get your students working diligently on their own unique poems while you're away.

Each of the 10 included lessons contain the following:

  • - A prepared sub plan note with teacher instructors

  • - A creative poem writing activity based around a popular style of poetry (see list below)

  • - A clear lesson flow chart attached to the lesson hand-out

  • - A peer edit collaboration activity worksheet

  • - A Common Core Standards-based grading rubric

POEM-TYPES INCLUDED IN RESOURCE:

Haikus, Cinquains, Concrete Poems, Villanelles, Sonnets, Petrarchan Sonnets, Prose Poems, Free Verse, Imagery, and Narrative Poems

Although this resource can be fitted for any secondary Language Arts classroom, it has been carefully designed to work best in grades 9, 10, 11, and 12. The included rubrics are subtly but specifically tied to Common Core ELA Standards for Writing (4 and 5). This resource is provided in print-ready, bookmarked, and adjustable PDF files.

This resource contains 12 Pages.
