Poetry Alive was a week long residency program for all of our 5th grade students and teachers in which two Poetry Alive actors worked with the students on various literacy components that included Cloze reading of poetry to gain a deeper understanding of the poem, various performance elements such as blocking, scripting, and performing the poem for an audience. Every 5th grade student worked in collaborative teams of 3-5 all week with the teachers and performers to select, plan, rehearse, and perform a poem during their own Poetry Alive! Student Showcase for their grade level peers and parents at the end of the week.
