Webquest are wonderful for teaching I use them all the time and have made a few of my own.  It great when you don't want the kids just going to anything.  Go on one and you will see why teacher are so into them.

Every teacher I've ever spoken to says that the best gifts are not store-bought, but created by the child with sentiments from his or her heart.  Could your son write his teacher a letter telling him about what he learned and maybe what his favorite memories of the school year are?  A poem or drawing would be good too...anything that lets the teacher know how much his work is appreciated.  It's a tough job!

I received from a friend a "survival kit for teachers" last year; it had several items with a clever explanation for each of them.  For example she put in a piece of a jigsaw puzzle that reminds me that I'm just a little part of the big picture, a band-aid for when my students' hurt and my efforts don't seem to work, an eraser to start each day on a clean slate, etc.  I found a site with some different ideas you could use for this http://www.kimskorner4teachertalk.com/classmanagement/survivalkit.html

get your hands on "The Geranium on the Windowsill Just Died But Teacher You Went Right On." It's out of print, so a library might be the best place. it will blow your mind. it's so good.

Despite about 25 minutes of searching I haven't been able to find this poem.  Could you call or e-mail someone you know who has to do the same assignment and possibly get the poem that way?  \n\nThese sites may be of some help to you.  My only other advice would be to get to a bookstore in your area if there is one and you might find it there.  Best of luck with it.

Young children look for rhyming poetry with a steady rhythm and basic language.  It helps if there are pictures to illustrate the ideas in the poems.  Try Shel Silverstein.

YOu should probably invest in a good resource book to help you such as the one at one of the websites I've attached.  YOu probably also need to talk to other people about this because from your question it is difficult to determine exactly what you need - are you a student yourself learning to be a teacher?  Are you a high school student?  Are you already teaching?  The wording of your question suggests you need to do a lot of work to be prepared to teach poetry and prose to high school students.\n\nI hope this is of some help.
