If I am teaching a poem how would I go?

If I am teaching a poem how would I go?        Poem is for enjoyment and learning also. It is meant for beauty and adds the feeling s of interest.The students enjoys the beauty of the poem for the longer period of time. We teachers might be remembering some of the beautiful poems we learnt long back.The credit of this goes to our teachers and also our active participation in the classroom teaching.              Let's decide teaching steps for maximum learning of a poem.                   1. The teacher should  introduce the title and  tell its meaning. The students should be attracted to go through the poem .                 2. The teacher should read the poem with proper pronunciation, intonation and stress.           3. He should ask the students to read it loudly. May be one or two students to increase students' confidence.  The teacher would ask them for silent  reading for comprehension.                                   4. The teacher would introduce difficult words, some time give hints and let the students learn freely at their own.                                       5.The teacher may  tell the summary in simple possible words or ask the students to tell the contents by asking simple  questions.                              5. The teacher should take each activity one by one according to the format. The teacher should help them to discover the answers.                        6. One important thing is the teacher should give clues, key points etc. to make the students feel that they are able answer at their own.                           This sort of feeling of the students makes their learning easy. The overall participation of students make the learning easy.
