Never fear, fellow Extreme Teachers! Your daily dose of state-test reading questions is still here - just scroll down to the next post for today's question.
Before you do, however, take a moment to check out this resource on archetypes:
There is no better way to unlock poetry to students who find it too esoteric than with archetypes. These symbols worm their way into poems, novels, movies, songs, video games - you name it. They are easy to grasp and open up potential meaning all around. I have used the presentation in this lesson for regular level all the way to AP level with great success.
It also comes with a lesson using a Keats poem if you wish to expand on it.
It is, by far, the most valuable lesson I have had in my 31 years of teaching.
Check it out!
