About the Poem Comprehension Worksheet

Poem Comprehension offers a detailed exploration of Robert Louis Stevenson's "The Wind" through carefully structured analysis activities. This interactive and printable worksheet, that aligns with the Common Core State Standards, Poem Comprehension guides students through the process of understanding poetry through multiple perspectives, from literal comprehension to deeper interpretation. The worksheet begins with the complete poem text, allowing students to immerse themselves in the imagery and rhythm of the verse before engaging with analytical questions.

The worksheet features both open-ended and multiple-choice questions that progress from basic comprehension to more complex interpretation. Students are challenged to understand not only what the wind does in the poem but also how the poet personifies it and why certain literary devices are used.
