Wild Words: Teacher Resource Guide

1.1. What is a poem?

Before going out into the wild it's important to be well equipped - so make sure your class is all on the same page about what a poem is.

If you've already joined us for the Wild Words session in the Garden we will have done this with you, but it can be a good exercise to follow-up back in the classroom and see what the children remember and if there's anything else they might now add to the list. 

If you are doing this for the first time, create a list of suggestions with the children and then select the hotspots on the image below to add any others to the list. An alternative accessible version is available in Word document format.
