Three poets and experts in the field give their insights on teaching and using poetry to navigate transitions in an unprecedented digital, hybrid, and in-person landscape. Sharing their combined 30 years of experience, a high school humanities teacher, lower school English teacher, and instructional designer will share lesson plan tips and tricks and lead a sample activity for other educators, hopeful educators, and lovers of poetry and pedagogy.
The Teacher Track is a special series of four sessions specifically targeting teachers and poet-educators interested in learning more about poetry pedagogy. These sessions will serve as the first part of Mass Poetry’s annual teacher training programming. To participate in the Teacher Track, Festival ticket holders must attend all four sessions. Participation accrues four hours towards PDPs by the MA Department of Education or a Mass Poetry certificate—the remaining six hours of training required to award PDPs or certificates will be offered this summer at a mutually agreed-upon time.
