Teacher’s Feedback
- “My students really enjoyed this poetry unit – especially the Spoken Word. It was easy to use and the modifications for learners was helpful. It was so nice to have students engaged in a poetry unit!”
- “I spent a happy couple of hours reading through the lesson plans, saving video links, and organizing files to use with my grade 7 virtual class. ELA is NOT my comfort zone, so the clear definitions, answer keys, and especially specific poem examples are a huge relief. I have used other products from 2 peas, and I like the consistency of language on the rubrics, and the detail in digital files that are ready to use with google classroom. The short videos (recommended or linked) from a wide range of channels give a concise overview. I’m glad that I don’t have to find them all myself (or make them!) Thanks so much for another great resource.”
- “My students loved this unit so much. My students were able to create poems that really represented them. “
