The Covington Middle School seventh grade Language Arts and Social studies teacher recently collaborated to create a day dedicated to the reading and analysis of writings by famed author Edgar Allan Poe.

 

Members of the community were invited to the school to read various works with small groups of students and then do detailed analysis into the meanings.

 

"We felt like this was a great way to culminate our time learning about such a famous, but also challenging writer such as Poe," said Covington teacher Karri Fansler. "It was a great opportunity for the students to gain additional perspective on Poe's writings and welcome the community in to see how we're working to make learning innovative and engaging for kids."
