This CPD resource for English teachers looks at how inspiration for creative writing and poetry can be found in the most unlikely places for GCSE students.
CPD trainer Peter Thomas introduces middle and secondary teachers to the possibilities of using society's most forgotten objects as inspiration for writing poems.
Peter uses Trevor Millum's Glad and Sad, I Ams, as a teaching resource for Key Stages 3 and 4, and challenges the teachers to write their own I Am from everyday objects which they may treasure but mean little to anyone else.
