Structure in poetry: equality in poetic structure helps the artist portray meaning in a consistent flow allowing readers to better understand the message.

Correlational Features

Poems with structure could or could not have a rhyme scheme

They could or could not be beautifully written

Diction might also cause a poem with structure to seem as if it's not structured

They could or could not contain humor

Non-examples

Mis-conceptions

Over Generalizing

Anything with structure is poetry (lists)

Anything with pretty words is poetry (prose)

Under Generalizing

Defining Characteristics

Depending on the type of structured poem, there are different rules

Rules might include:

Syllables per line

There is no set number of syllables in a line for sonnets

Meter or rhythm

Sonnets use iambic pentameter

How many stanzas

Sonnets have one stanza that is 14 lines long

Other Units

Chemistry

Chemical equations need to be equal in order to solve

Social Studies

Math

Students I'll deliver this topic to:

High school English students

Students would have be capable of paying attention during the lesson at this point in schooling

Boys: teach them to channel their aggression and feelings into writing poetry. Girls: teach them to express themselves through writing poetry.

Students have read poetry before at this age so they would be able to relate that to this experience of creating their own poetry.

I would focus on the students ZPD in order to help them write their own poetry

Formal Operational level

Equality affects problem solving
