This resource was tried and tested in the classroom recently – the students were very engaged and eager to complete the mini worksheet booklet. It has also been used in a successful job interview!.

It is an Ofsted-aligned KS3 poetry lesson that helps students explore imagery, structure, and language in Tennyson’s The Eagle before crafting their own original poem using the MAGPI framework (Metaphor, Adjectives, Grammar, Personification, Imagination).
