Description
This Poet Study collaborative poster is all you need to teach and promote amazing poets and their poetry around the world. National Poetry Month is April. The Poet Study (Poet-Tree) poster is a beautiful poster and writing activity. There are lots of opportunity for creativity.
The poetry poster can be used any time of the year (it does not say “National Poetry Month”). Your poet study includes poets throughout history from around the world. Give your students a relevant and modern experience while promoting poetry, diversity, and achievement. Leave the display up all year long, I would!
This spring do something that your students will love. It is triple the fun with the combination of coloring, creativity, and group work! Students will collaborate to assemble the poster for your classroom wall, bulletin board, classroom door, hallway, lobby, or library. Get your students enthusiastic about poetry. Watch students and staff stop and look at your students’ masterpiece…it is eye-catching!
I give you the assembly instructions and helpful tips to make it even better! You will only need to print this one time per class! That’s it. The collaboration poster project is a perfect size to laminate. The final poster is 2.6 wide and 3.3 tall.
