Evaluation: Preparing to teach a poetry lesson

We were recently told that we were to teach a grade nine class a poetry lesson. This got us all excited, I mean, how cool is that, we get to teach. The poem that we were going to teach was An Abandoned Bundle by Oswald Mbuyiseni Mtshali. It was a powerful poem and in no time we were all ready preparing the lesson. Headstrong and passionate, the planning was awesome.
