Activity 10 Building-stage
              • Poems may have multiple
               layers to analyze, some of them
               might be inaccessible without
               knowing the poet and their
               other poems in full detail, so
               give students the freedom
               to consider more
               literal interpretations while
               fostering the skill of reading
               between the lines.

              • Poetry (and literature in general)
               is seldom naïve, so poetry has
               messages beyond what it is
               written. One of the purposes
               of a good reading is to unveil
               those secrets and, in doing so,
               enhance the enjoyment
               of reading.
              • You may change this activity so
               your students can read one of
               their poems in greater detail,
               instead of following the book.

              Activity 11
              • Looking for frequently used
               words is a way to understand
               poems. The strategy is similar to
               the one used in the first session
               of this practice.

              • When looking for frequently
               used words, ask your students
               to focus on nouns, adjectives,
               adverbs and verbs (you might or might not use these labels), rather than focusing on connectives (such as
               and, but, or) or determiners (this, that, the, a), which may be even more abundant.
