Seminar paper from the year 2011 in the subject English - Pedagogy,
Didactics, Literature Studies, grade: 2,0, LMU Munich (Institut fur
Anglistik), language: English, abstract: In general, poetry seems
to be a fairly neglected topic in today's classrooms. Reasons for
this may be multiple1 and it is probably difficult to determine
universally valid explanations. It does not make a difference
whether it is poetry in the mother tongue or poetry in a foreign
language; it just seems that poetry in general does not seem to be
very popular. Skipping through the current schoolbooks the
impression occurs that poetry only plays a subordinate role. Also,
when under time pressure and the necessity to drop certain topics,
poetry seems to be among the first ones to be dropped. The question
arises whether this is due to teachers who never found access to
poetry? The extra effort it might take to prepare for a poetry
lesson? Or is it lacking courage to approach a topic that seems to
be unpopular? It is up to teachers to either inspire or discourage
pupils when it comes to poetry. This inspiration or discouragement
may last a lifetime. Many pupils probably consider poetry as
'un-cool'. But in the time of events like literature and poetry
slams, which are highly enjoyed by many pupils and students, it
should be worth re-thinking the attitude about poetry and to bring
poetry to the classrooms. With this paper I would like to show
approaches, activities and ideas how teachers can make poetry more
popular in the classroom.
