Creative teaching Ideas for students?

Question

I am a high school senior, in an enriched english class, and I have to teach my class for 40 minutes about my poet, William Wordsworth. I wanted to do something creative with the class, like an activity to make learning about him fun and interesting. But I can't think of any ideas. I wanted to do something with his writing influences (depression from life events, death of family members, lost loves, and also the love of nature and the beauty of it). If anyone has any suggestions of what I can do for an activity, please help!

Thank you very much.

Answer 1

I would dress up as William Wordsworth, talk to the class about my life history and inspirations for writing poetry, then I would recite a poem.

Answer 2

You could have the students act out the poem. Maybe make a skit or script of what went on in William Wordsworth's life to make him write this poem.

Answer 3

maybe try drawing a picture ane cutting it into differentshapes like a puzzle and have facts on the other side or just makeup a crossword puzzle.

Answer 4

o_o wow. you can make them read the poem first and then make one of them go up and read it like they thought it should be read. just a wild shot XD
