Unit outline
To conclude this poetry unit students will independently or in groups deliver a classical poem covered in the unit. The poem will be presented in
front of the class. Diversity will be catered for wherever possible in the attached poetry lesson plans.
Reading
Students will read published poems to better understand a poets opinion, detail and coherence. Reading opportunities throughout the unit allow
students to share their individual understanding of poems through actively participating in class discussions. Students will demonstrate
understanding of grammar, select vocabulary, accurate spelling and punctuation through reading and writing to improve their individual poetry
meanings (ACARA, 2017).
Writing
This unit will incorporate opportunities for students to demonstrate poetic devices and features that include descriptive terms, creativity and
expression. Viewpoints will be discussed and shared regularly (ACARA, 2017).

I will consider all the needs of the students and adapt this unit by considering what my students know,
what they can do, and where they want to be by developing a road map of steps to successfully pass
this unit of work.
In Ms Flemings class the cohort of students is diverse. There is 1 EAL/D student, 1 x student with and
auditory processing diagnoses, 1 x ADHD student, 1 x student diagnosed with autism, Indigenous
students, a number of high and low achievers.
Poetry, video clips and resources required to deliver this unit will be carefully selected. Videos will be
screened prior to presenting to the students.

Students will be informed of their individual progress verbally, in writing and after formative and
summative assessments.
Feedback is usually delivered by the classroom teacher however, self and peer assessment may also
be used.
I aim to provide timely, ongoing and purposeful feedback relevant to the ACARA outcomes that will be
delivered throughout this unit.
Feedback will most likely be in the form of what individual students know, how they did for the relevant
task and what they can do to improve their work.
Feedback will need to personalised for each student.
Teacher reflection
I need to identify what went well and what didnt in order to guide my future planning but to also improve
