Hello! I am hoping you can help me create a lesson plan for my fourth grade class about poetry. I want the lesson plan to include time for an introduction, a poem read aloud, and a group activity, and homework.

Introduction to Poetry: What is Poetry?

- Ask students to explain poetry in their own words. 
- Define poetry and write the definition on the board: literary work in which special intensity is given to the expression of feelings and ideas by the use of distinctive style and rhythm. 
- Ask students if they know any famous poets. 
- Give examples: Shakespeare, Edgar Allen Poe, T.S. Elliot, and Robert Frost. 
- Explain who Robert Frost was and why he was so important to the genre of poetry. 

Example of a Poem: Robert Frost's “The Road Not Taken”

- Distribute “The Road Not Taken” by Robert Frost to the class.
- Have the class read the poem aloud; each student read one line. 
- Ask students what the theme of the poem was and why it is considered a poem. 

Group Activity: Write a Poem in Groups of 3 or 4

- Ask the students to form groups of 3-4.
- Their assignment is to write a poem with a clear theme, rhythm, style, and feeling.
- Have one student from each group read their poem in front of the class.
- Ask the rest of the class to guess the theme or feeling of the poem. 

Assign Homework: Write an Original Poem

- Ask the students to write their own poems for homework.
- Set a theme such as their favorite day, family, pets, food, etc.
