Proposed Audience, and Time Frame for Unit
This curriculum unit has been developed for students in grades K – to 4, and will be implemented over 4 weeks in each grade, so we will have plenty of time to read and develop several activities in English and Spanish providing foreign language instruction and multicultural experiences. I have chosen poems of the most important Latin Women poets, and also some of more recent published ones, dividing this unit in: section I. Introduction, (general aspects of poetry), II. Profile of poets and published work, III. Selected Poems Translated to English by myself, IV. Basic Goals, General Objectives and Lesson Plans, V. Vocabulary (in English and Spanish), VI. Endnotes – Resources, Bibliography, and Acknowledgements.
