Make their favorite poems more relatable by using this conducting a Poet Study mini inquiry! These short interviews, presented in an easily-navigable Google Slides library, are just what you need!!

Students will get to "meet" 4 children's poets via short interview excerpts directed towards young students. They will learn about...
✨ Francisco Alarcon and how being bilingual and binational affects his poetry.
✨ Amanda Gorman and how growing up with a speech impediment caused her to lean on words in wonderful ways.
✨ Jacqueline Woodson and how she integrates her childhood longing for representation in literature to create beautiful, inclusive poems and prose for all ages.
✨ Kwame Alexander and how he finally fell in love with poetry after hating books altogether.
Present the video library to the whole class OR assign the slides to students for independent research!
TIP: Pair this with my Author Study Resource to extend students' learning!
I can't wait to see how you use this in your classroom!
About Kate, founder of Lit By Learning:
Hi! I’m a bilingual teacher who has been in Chicago Public School classrooms for over 12 years with a Masters Degree in Early Childhood Education. Throughout my time in Pre-K, 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 5th grade classrooms, I’ve developed a passion for standards-based, culturally-relevant education. The interdisciplinary, inquiry-based curricula & resources I’ve developed alongside colleagues has yielded fantastic student growth and achievement results for my English Language Learner students and beyond. Outside of the classroom, I parent my two boys and love both spicy food & excellent books.
