Words of Poetry WebQuest

Focus:
This WebQuest focuses on types of poetry. The objective of this webquest is to help students learn different forms of poetry, famous poets, and how to create presentation using Movie Maker. As the teacher, you may want to modify the webquest to meet your students' needs.  The Poet's Packet is general when asking for information.  You can ask your students to give additional/less information if you choose.

Please note, the pdf file of the Poet's Packet is not linking.  While I am not for sure of the problem, I hope to have the problem solved ASAP.  If you would like to do this lesson, please email me so that I can forward a copy of the packet to you.  Thank you for your patience.

Time Required: 6 - 7 periods (40 minutes)
