  1. Step 1: Poem A: (suggestopedia) Ask the students to listen carefully without opening their books. And then the teacher plays some quiet music and reads Poem A with the music on for the first time. Hand out Poem A and ask them to look at Poem A while the teacher sing it for the second time. The third time, the teacher asks the students to sing it themselves together or follow the teacher.

  2. Introduce rhyme and rhythm: Rhyme: A rhyme is a repetition of similar sounds in two or more words and is most often used in poetry and songs. In the specific sense, two words rhyme if their final stressed vowel and all following sounds are identical; two lines of poetry rhyme if their final strong positions are filled with rhyming words.

  3. Rhythm: Rhythm is the beat that runs through the lines in a poem. It is when a stressed syllable is followed by an unstressed syllable so that your voice becomes louder and then softer as you read.

  4. Twinkle twinkle little star How I wonder what you are, Up above the world so high Like a diamond in the sky. 强弱 强 弱强弱 强 Rhyme&rhythmare essential to poetry. Without them, there wouldn’t be poems.

  5. Hush, little baby, don’t say a word, Papa’s going to buy you a mockingbird. If that mockingbird won’t sing, Papa’s going to buy you a diamond ring. If that diamond ring turns to brass, Papa’s going to buy you a looking glass. If that looking-glass gets broke, Papa’s going to buy you a billy-goat If that billy-goat runs away, Papa’s going to buy you another today.

  6. Step 2: Poem B and Poem C: Hand out two sets of paper of Poem B. Each piece of Set One contains the 1st, 3rd, 5th-----11th line of Poem B and is given to the students sitting on the left of each group. And each piece of Set Two contains the 2nd, 4th -----12th line of Poem B and is given to the students sitting on the right. These pieces of paper are in scattered order.

I saw two sparrows run a race, I saw two horses making lace, 9. I saw a girl just like a cat, I saw a kitten wear a hat, 11. I saw a man who saw these too, And said though strange they all were true

  8. Deal with Poem C also using Suggestopedia. After handing out Poem C, let them check whether this poem rhyme like poem A and B. Then tell them not all poems rhyme. Point out the use of the subjunctive mood in this poem.
