Description
Have your students demonstrate their understanding of “The Raven” by Edgar Allan Poe by creatively blending written analysis with visual elements drawn from the text using this one-pager poetry analysis project. Students use evidence from the poem to transform key ideas into meaningful illustrations and written responses.
This poetry one-pager activity provides an engaging way for students to summarize and interpret the poem while analyzing important elements of Poe’s craft. Students are encouraged to incorporate a range of literary devices, sound devices, and figurative language, such as metaphor, simile, personification, hyperbole, imagery, allusion, symbolism, alliteration, repetition, mood, tone, and theme.
Completed projects result in unique and thoughtful interpretations of the poem and also make eye-catching classroom displays and bulletin boards that showcase student learning.
This resource includes
Student directions, a rubric for assessment, an example project, ten blank printable templates (optional), and an editable Word document so teachers can modify the assignment as needed.
