, OPTION A: INTENSIVE READING OF POETRY QUESTION 1 LESSON
ACCOUNT QUESTION As a text, poetry is a suitable genre of writing that can
be used to teach the four teaching skills taught in a classroom: listening,
speaking, reading and writing. 1. Choose a Grade 10, 11 or 12 class. 2. With
reference to the given poem, show your learners how to interpret words to
teach poetry. 3. Write an account of a double-period lesson in which you use
questions and skill development to teach specific skills through a close
reference to the selected poem. 4. COMPULSORY: One of the activities must
be group work. 5. The follow-up activity should be a creative activity in which
learners create specific original critical analyses (a five-paragraph essay) to
present in the next lesson. 6. Ensure that your activities are learner-centred,
varied and stimulating, intensive and closely aligned with references to the
selected poem, and supported with clear justifications of your teaching
strategies. Question 1 Based on the poem Honey by Ruth Miller, demonstrate
through a lesson account how you would teach the skill of reading “poetry” to
the learners in your class. Provide a detailed description of the five activities
you select and develop to teach specific skills using the poem chosen: The
poet skilfully employs poetic devices (these could be how the poet uses either
imagery, a metaphor, alliteration, enjambement, personification, symbolism,
and contrasting or sensory language) to create a captivating and rich portrayal
of the bee’s work and the sweetness of the honey. Choose three of these
devices and indicate which ones you are using. Demonstrate how you would
teach these poetic devices to reveal how the poet created the poem’s
meaning. Do this through teaching activities that include a close reading of the
poem by referring to the lines of the poem. Your lesson account must contain
a close reading of the poem to identify and highlight the poetic devices and
artistry of the poet. A close reading activity provides the substance and
evidence for the points you wish the learners to make in their essay. 4 Honey
Ruth Miller The helicopter bee fines down 1 His motor to a midget drone. 2
The creamfurred throat engulfs him. Soon 3 His legs grow pantaloons of gold.
4 His thousand brothers sing and thrust 5 Their piston legs, their pinion gauze,
6 Blind to the plundering soft raid 7 On catacombs of murmuring halls. 8 Now
cool long jars gleam with the taste 9 Of amber hours suavely stolen 10 From
summer swooning in the heat; 11 Till smooth and pale, and pale and golden,
12 There slides like bliss upon the tongue 13 A bawd’s red kiss, a drudges
song. 14 For your convenience, we have included some background reading
