Cruzdia1 This book can be used in class to motivate students to become poets themselves. I would encourage students to write their own poetry and then participate in a RA. Some other teaching strategies that can be used for this activity are S, RT, IR, or DR. An example of this is illustrated in this video by edutopia that shows how performance poetry has the power to engage students in effective ways. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D8eym-7jeo0&t=36s 6y
Cruzdia1 A UDL strategy that can be implemented is 5.3 build fluencies with graduated levels of support for practice and performance. An EL strategy that can be used is #24 incorporate the culture and the language of second language learners in your curriculum. This can be done by helping the student draw inspiration from poets who your student can relate to. 6y
