At 9 to 5 everything was ready. As a fast swimmer he was he reached Greta s house in 3 minutes and in 9 to 1 he was ringing her doorbell with his right fin . But all of a sudden a horrible sea storm broke out . Students work in pairs or groups of three. Teacher gives a little background on the poet and the Mersey Sound, which is a collection of poems that echo the mood of the pop poetry of the sixties bringing poetry down from the dusty shelf and onto the street .
Teacher asks students to read the poems for some minutes.
She comments on the imaginativeness and accuracy of the poem and how love comparisons bring things together in an unexpected way. Teacher asks them to compare the poems as to the style, use of vocabulary and images they evoke. While students read the poems pictures are being scattered on a big desk or blue tacked on the board. It is important that students do not see the pictures before reading the poems. Then, students are asked to go and pick out one picture they like from those the teacher has arranged.
