Many AP teachers LOVE TP-CASTT. I'm not one of them, but here's a good handout for it.

​

Here's one called POETS which is nice.

Reading Essential Questions 

  • How do authors use figurative language to create sensory details, and how does this affect the reader’s mood?  

  • What is the importance of graphical elements (e.g., capital letters, line length, word position) with regards to the meaning of a poem? 

 

​

Readings 

If you can't find the poem, keep looking. "The Road Not Taken" is under R.
