- 6. Slow downThe poem will remain a blur if you read it as fast as a newspaper or short story.
- 7. Give it multiple readingsThree at least: one aloud for the sound and rhythm, one deliberately line by line for analysis, and a third time at the normal pace again.
- 8. Go back to puzzling lines or phrasesUse your dictionary when needed. Online dictionaries provide quick and easy access to unfamiliar words!
- 9. Use a pencil.If the book is your own, underline what you like and circle what puzzles you. If you have looked up a new word, pencil in a brief definition. If you are using a borrowed copy, consider photocopying the pages or using Post-it notes..
- 10. UNDERSTANDING POETRYSALTTOne way to first approach a poem is to use SALTT.S=Speakerthe voice of the poem. Who is telling the poem? (not the author)A=Audiencewho is supposed to read/understand the poem?L=Life message/Theme: what is the reader supposed to learn?T=Topics: specific ideas/topics and details in the poem (support the theme)T=Techniques: poetic techniques and structure of the poem.It only takes a minute to identify SALTT and it opens up a whole lot of information to you as a reader.Write these down!!

- 13. Use of LINESA poem uses the line (rather than the sentence) as a primary unit. Thus, the poet, not the size of the paper, determines the end of the line.
- 14. A heightened use of IMAGESThat is, words and descriptions that appeal to all five senses.
- 15. Greater attention to the SOUND of words.Poems use rhyming and other sound techniques such as alliteration to emphasize the sounds of words.The cute cats cry.The floppy, soppy mop.
- 16. A Development of RHYTHMA natural pattern or obvious beat often emerges in poetry. It is often marked with dashes (/) and Us for stressed and unstressed syllables, accordingly.Peter, Peter pumpkin eater
- 17. Creative DENSITYThat is, poems often imply far more than is actual stated. Pages of ideas that might be developed in normal prose are condensed down to a small group of evocative words and phrases.
