Search Strategy: Building Block
S1 (poetry OR rhyme ) AND
S2 (encourag* OR promot*) AND
S3 (high school OR middle school).
Limiters: January 1998 to July 2008
My search produced 33 hits.
One hit that looked especially interesting was this one--
Reyes, Gerald T. "Finding the Poetic High: Building a Spoken Word Poetry Community and Culture of Creative, Caring, and Critical Intellectuals." Multicultural Education 14, no. 2 (2006): 10-15. (EJ759646)
The Building Block strategy is helpful for focusing a search on
specific areas. Had I just searched (poetry) AND (schools), I
would have gotten 2210 hits.
The Building Block strategy is also useful because looking at the
subject terms for hits returned is a good way to find synonyms
that can be used to refine or modify a search.
