Michael's poems, stories and interviews are great free resources and they could make great starting points for English lessons for kids, TEFL or ESL lessons, children's theatre or homeschooling UK there are lots of pearls of wisdom to teach poetry to children in ks1, ks2 and beyond.
For example:
Why not share this clip - learn about technology
Discuss performance poetry - what does it make you think?
Look at other Michael Rosen poems - which ones do you like, why?
How does Michael's work compare and contrast with another poet?
Teachers or Homeschoolers - work with your kids to create your own performance piece for selected poems.
Pupils could create their own story poems about favourite foods, strict teachers or a Bear Hunt.
Listen to Francesca Simon, author of the Horrid Henry books, explain how to come up with memorable characters of your own.
OR
Use this as a inspiration to start you're own independent research on Michael Rosen poetry, Wind in The Willows and children's literature.
Who is Michael Rosen?
My first book for children was called Mind Your Own Business and it came out in 1974. Quentin Blake did wonderful line drawings for it.
Ever since then, I've been doing these things:
Writing books
Writing articles for newspapers and magazines
Going to schools, libraries and theatres and performing the poems in my books
Helping children write poems and stories
Making radio programmes, mostly about words, language or books
Appearing on TV, either reading books, or talking about books
Teaching at universities about children's literature
Running workshops for teachers about poetry
and now - beatboxing
In any week, I might be doing all of these things! To tell the truth, I don't really know what I'm doing tomorrow, unless I look in my diary to see.
