In this English lesson taught by Miss Maria Demicoli, students are encouraged to engage with poetry through listening, reciting, and analyzing literary devices and their effects. Key activities include a poem recital, vocabulary building with words like “geek,” “tunes,” and “sparking,” and a creative freeze-frame task. The lesson also integrates a positivity quiz from brilliantstarmagazine.org, prompting reflection on attitudes towards optimism and pessimism.
