Show transcript
Reading and re-reading poems leads to a richer response and a greater understanding of language within the poem. Engaging in conversations about poems allows us to make connections with our own lives and the world around us. Comparing poems involves exploring the themes, structures and language within them. A theme is a big idea, topic or message that recurs in a poem.
