There are nine different poetic forms covered, and each one has 4-12 examples of curated poems; consider it a poetry 'sampler'!

This resource pairs well with my poetry analysis slideshow so students have a chance to analyse and discuss some of the poems. I also provide students with a poetry notebook so they can try writing their own poems! As a final project, have students make a poetry anthology and make marking easy on yourself with these handy criteria sheets and rubrics!
