Poems and discussion quesions are published together in chapters according to themes. Good for high school English. I like that I can copy the poems for the students. The writing exercises are also effective. This is the one poetry book I use.

Every chapter in this workbook-sized book presents a different theme of poetry and then gives ideas that inspire teens to write their own poem. It is motivating and realistic. Teachers will find this book easy to use and will return to it time and again when they want to fire up their students' creative voice.

There are a lot of good ideas for integrating poetry into curriculum. The book has lesson ideas as well as examples. It is easy to implement.
