This project will encourage pupils to explore poetry through the
imaginative manipulation of image and sound and through face-to-face
and online interaction with a practising poet to produce multimodal
texts uploaded to a website. Through these activities, pupils will
learn how to analyse a poem’s effects and to respond to these in
detail. Teachers will be introduced to new poetry texts and to
stimulating and challenging ways of exploring these through critical
use of digital media.
Resources:
This is mood template created by Adrian Burke, English consultant for use with the project. This can be used to develop pupil's response to poems. To begin with, it could be used to respond to a piece of music or image. Pupil's could highlight the words in different colours - red for 'I don't know', orange for 'I think I know' and green for 'I know'. This can then be developed so that pupil's use it as a response to particular poems alongside point-evidence-explanation.

Storyboard for planning out ideas for pupil films. Could be used
alongside annotation of the text either individually or as a small
group. Pupils can sketch simple ideas / make notes about what kind of
images they want to use as well as note the kind of music or effects
they might select.
