Understanding how Bridges presents nature in 'Clear and Gentle Stream'

English

In 'Edexcel Belonging Poetry', pupils compared the language, form and structure of a variety of poems connected by the themes of culture and identity. In 'Edexcel Belonging Poetry continued', pupils work on making more nuanced comparisons between poems.

In 'Single Poet Study: Maya Angelou', pupils explored how Angelou uses her poetry to present strong relationships to people and place. In 'Edexcel Belonging Poetry', pupils analyse how a variety of different relationships to culture and place have been presented across time.

In this unit, pupis explore 12 of the 15 poems from the 'Belonging' anthology. Pupils complete two lessons on each poem: one on understanding and one on analysis. Pupils study the poems in a thematically linked order so they can complete comparative and thematic lessons at key points in the unit.
