1Instructions: Discuss some ideas by providing necessary information needed. Be guide by
the rubric below. 5 points will be given for each item.

1. As a feature language educator, which of the following mentioned strategies in

teaching poetry is the best for your learners? Elaborate your answer.
2.
*For me, the best strategy mentioned in teaching poetry is reading aloud. Because,
When you read aloud, you do just that: you read out loud. When we read to students,
we take advantage of the fact that until about the 6th to 8th grade, kids have a
"listening level" that is much higher than their reading level. When we read to
students, we get them interested in things they might not be able to read on their
own. In this way, we give them more ideas, teach them new things, help them learn a
language, build their vocabulary, and show them that reading is a fun and
worthwhile activity. From preschool to high school, all students can benefit from
being read to. Students can make connections between written and spoken language
by listening to a reader who is fluent, expressive, and lively.

3. How could poetry help to develop language skills among learners?

*Poems can be used to teach or practice new words, language structures, and
rhyming devices. Shorter poems often give ELLs a chance to explore an idea while
working with a smaller amount of text than a short story or essay. Poetry can be
used in the ELL classroom because it can be used in so many different ways. There
are so many different kinds of poetry and so many different ways to write it that
every student will eventually find a poem or poet they like. Poetry is also a great
way for English Language Learners to practice reading, writing, speaking, and
listening. Students can also use poetry to learn new words, play with language, and
try out different rhythms and rhyme patterns.

4. Identify 1 poetry and explain how you will teach this in your language class using
one approach/strategy. Be specific on details.
 I'll pick the poem "Jack and Jill." Every time we talk, we naturally put more
emphasis on some words or syllables than others. Sometimes the rhythm is very
regular and clear, like in a children's nursery rhyme like "Jack and Jill went up
the hill," but even in the most simple sentence, the important words are
emphasized. Rhythm is very important in poetry. Patterns are made on purpose
and repeated to get different effects. I will use the Reading Aloud strategy to
teach this poetry because, no matter how well a student can read, Reading Aloud
helps them understand that print has meaning and can tell a story. When stories
or other texts are read out loud to young students, they can get used to the way
words are put together and how sentences flow.
