The intellect and emotions of teachers as well as students can be stimulated by sharing literary texts. In teaching a narrative poem, the logical place to start is with the story-the who, what, when, where, and, since poetry encapsulates human emotions and motivations, the how and why. Cultural references can be clarified through notes, pictures, and guiding questions. Once comfortable with the surface meaning of a poem, students will be ready to explore deeper layers of meaning by considering figurative language and other poetic strategies. In classes where composition is a focus, writing assignments that prompt rereading and reflection help students to extend their understanding and thus their literary pleasure.
