Curriculum Development
Spoken Word for EmpowermentTime Required: 6 week to full school semester
Audience: Grade 4-12 Description: The foundation of Spoken Word for Empowerment is arts integration, community-based engagement, and social justice. Based on her own experience as a poet, her research, and case studies she conducted during her time at Mount Holyoke College, Tayllor believes the performance poetry is a profound and effective way for young people to find and explore their voices and their world. With this curriculum, students will learn the basics of writing, editing, and performing poetry, as it connects to the school curriculum. Along the way, they will explore their own world, current events, and their voice with a critical and curious lens through, interactive activities and discussions. Students will support each other, work together, create together, and will be invited into the experience as holistic people. Over the course of the curriculum, students will explore poetry’s many faces, as well as the many facets of their own community and school culture. At the conclusion of the curriculum, students will have the opportunity to share their work, epiphanies, and ideas with their school community or beyond. |
