Dear virtual poetry friends.I seriously need your help. I have 2 teach Sonnet 18 in highschool suggestion pls?


I’m currently doing my MA in ESL. So a part of my evaluation is that i have to be sent to a highschool to teach literature elements in English. Sonnet 18 is in the school syllabus so i chose that particular poem simply bcoz i love it so much. I am required to teach the smartest class, then the “dumbest class”. Tomorrow is my 30minutes slot for the smartest class. They have learnt the poem before by their teacher. This is a kind of revision, however i have to make the activity extremely interesting as to instill the love of poetry within them.

Although reading and writing poetry are my passion, I have never taught poetry before. So dear friends please i urgently need your suggestions/ideas on the activities possible in teaching Sonnet 18.

Thanks a million in advance!
