FOR THE RECITATION OF POEMS:

II. Since one of the purposes of this contest is to have students appreciate Italian
poetry and poets, a poem chosen for recitation must be a published poem by a
recognized Italian author and NOT one written by the student. Each student of
a given teacher must recite a different poem.
Please note the following procedure for 2013: It is suggested that students select from the
included list of poems (Levels 1,2,3) or the list of poets (Levels 4,5) compiled by the Poetry
Contest Committee.
(p. 1)
III. A. Poems must consist of at least 12 lines and not more than 20 lines for levels
1,2,3 and at least 12 lines and not more than 30 lines for levels 4,5.
.
B. All poems must be recited from memory and must reflect the appropriate
level of study.
C. Students are also asked to be prepared to explain what the poem is about in 1 to 2
sentences in English.
Additional criteria for judging the recitations will be:
A)
Pronunciation
D) Poise
B)
Intonation
*E) Difficulty of poem
C)
Interpretation
* only for levels 4&5
Students MUST bring three typed copies of the poem so that the judges may follow the recitation. The
judges will deliberate after the recitation. The awards ceremony will follow immediately.

before their peers and parents in the local school.
