I found it quite suitable to analyse a poem. The definition of terms is very helpful.

Thankyou for the resource.Besides using the resource as it is I will write or ask some students to write the ideas or key words from the poem with line numbers then stick them around the class, then ask students to go around labelling the post its with the "Splatt" words.
