Love Song for Alex, 1979

Teaching materials include questions, prompts, and activities that can be used after students read the poem independently or as a group, and as formative or summative assessment tools. The materials can also be utilized in poetry lesson planning and unit design, for class discussion, Entrance and Exit “tickets,” small group seminars, and writing activity ideas. 

Use the writing options in lessons to create opportunities for finding evidence and support in the text, employing critical thinking skills, and practicing test-taking skills. Fulfill requirements for IEP/GIEP learners, early finishers, independent study, varied learning styles, and more.
