The student will record three poem readings. Now that you know how the poem should sound if it is to be understood, you're ready to record some poetry.
Students select three poems exemplary of the three characteristic types.
They then write prose translations as in the previous lesson. They study the prose translations and list the ideas expressed in the poem, as their partners did in the previous lesson. Students practice the reading of the poem aloud, closing thoughts at punctuation marks, rather than at the end of lines. Then they record the poems in your recording space. Your criterion should be their demonstrated comprehension of the poem revealed in their reading.
