 ReadWriteThink: Lesson Plan: What Am I? Teaching Poetry through Riddles
Because riddle poems are games as well as poems, they provide an easy and fun way to introduce students to poetry and poetic technique.
Moreover, as riddle poems are usually about mundane, concrete objects, they provide an opportunity to write in a poetic genre that avoids getting bogged down in the normal student poetry-writing angst: the belief that poems must be about grand ideas, use grandiose phrases, and make use of end-rhyme.
Distribute the Riddle Poem Features handout and ask the students to use it to analyze the riddle poems, and/or have them work through Exploring Riddle Poem Techniques.

I suppose in the end that's a matter of taste, but I'm certain that Riddle Master belongs in the same class as the best of the genre.
Her lyrical writing and deep, often heartbreaking, characters along with the depth and mystery of the plot create a lush world I once thought could only exist in my dreams.
