Poodle Knows Poetry is the third book in the Preliminary Level of the MCT language arts curriculum. It introduces first, second, and third graders to poetics concepts in an illustrated story format that kids will love! This manual helps instructors implement the student book effectively.
 
The Poodle Knows Poetry instructor manual contains the full text of the student book, answers to the end-of-chapter and end-of-book quizzes, and special boxes and bubbles filled with information that instructors can share with students to enhance their learning. The book also includes an instructor section, where Michael makes a case for the importance of poetry and an understanding of poetic devices, explores the fundamental concepts within the book, and explains his ideas for implementation to ensure that young readers come away from the text with a new respect for both the seriousness and the whimsy of language.
