VERSES THAT EDUCATE: THE ROLE OF POETRY IN BUILDING IDENTITIES AND VALUES IN SCHOOLS
Keywords:
Poetry, Education, IdentityAbstract
This paper discusses the role of poetry in schools, understanding it as an educational practice capable of contributing to the comprehensive education of students. The research is based on the understanding that poetry should not be treated merely as a literary genre to be studied, but as a living language that promotes reflection, imagination, and the construction of meaning. When incorporated into the curriculum in a systematic way, poetry favors the construction of identities, enabling students to recognize themselves and others in the learning process. In addition, it contributes to the development of ethical and social values, such as respect, solidarity, and democratic coexistence. The research uses a qualitative and bibliographic approach, based on authors who discuss literature, language, and education, in order to highlight the relevance of poetry in critical and civic education. Thus, the study reaffirms the need to rescue the educational potential of the poetic word in the contemporary school context.
