Mastering Text: Poetry

This new poetry-based ESL resource kit has been developed specifically for students with non-English-speaking backgrounds, but may also be used with students with language difficulties.

It uses 15 original and diverse poems as the basis for a wide range of comprehension-based language activities, which are based around both reading the material and listening to it from the accompanying audio CD.

Each poem constitutes a separate unit of work and is accompanied by ideas on building a lesson around the text, suggested learning outcomes and evaluation charts.
