Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A great base for any poetry lesson
This book does exactly what it says, providing all the poetry you will need for literacy and more. I use it for most of my poetry ideas as it lists all the genres and provides good variety.
Only bought this a few weeks ago but already well loved and written on to remind me which poems to use for certain word and sentence level work as well as particular genres. I will be buying the other books in this series as i am keen to find out what else there is to offer in this poetry collection that ... Read More:



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A Wonderful Resource
This book is simply brilliant! It provides examples for all the types of poems necessary to teach the literacy hour. It can be used to supplement examples that you already have or alternatively it can provide all the poems you need in order to explain to children about the different forms of poetry. I first used it teaching haikus to a year four class and found it really helpful when looking for additional examples to supplement the explanation I gave the children.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The Works- a collection of poetry for the Literacy Hour
As a practising Primary School teacher, this collection will be of great use to me. It has a copy of every possible type of poem that you would need in order to teach poetry effectively as part of the Literacy Hour. As the Literacy co-ordinator I am also tempted to buy a copy of this book for every class in the school.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Vital resource for anbody in the teaching profession.
This book is invaluable for teaching literacy in Primary Schools. As a 3rd Year trainee teacher this book has proved very useful. When presented with teaching a whole range of poetry in Year 6, the book provided the only basic reference source I needed. It has an easy format to follow by simply grouping the poems in poetry type for example, humourous and shape poems. I did use other poetry books to supplement the book such as, 'The Puffin book of Utterly Brilliant Poetry' edited by Brian Patten, which ... Read More:



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Perhaps the best anthology of poetry for children I know.
This marvelous anthology collects all manner of poems for children, from nursery rhymes and nonsense verse to haiku, shaped poems, chants, clerihews, and much more (about 380 poems in all). Many of the poems are clever and funny, which is good for children, but some of them are quiet, thoughtful, and even beautiful. So far, I don't think I've come across any that are needlessly sentimental. Plenty of the poems show a good sense of what it is like to be a child. My sons, ages 7 and 9, are enjoying ...
