Teacher's Guide Overview

The With Rough Gods Teacher's Guide is comprised of eleven lessons that fall into two categories: Comparison Studies and Poetic Studies.

The lessons in the Comparison Studies series focus on the poems in With Rough Gods as textual objects both within the canon of literature and Greek mythology. The lessons in the Poetic Studies series focus on the literary and poetic devices and structures of the poems in With Rough Gods. I trust you will find both approaches valuable within your classroom.

Each lesson includes a list of required materials. I will be adding information regarding Common Core Standards for each lesson as time allows.

I have found it useful when discussing literature for students to use a T-Chart in organizing their thoughts. Such a graphic organizer also fits many of the criteria of learning schedules, standards, and accommodations.
