I am not sure how a poetry unit relates to speaking and listening standards, unless the "speaker" is within the poem.

I'm not sure how the grammar standards relate to poetry. These standards are more geared towards traditional essays. Poetry does not necessarily follow conventional grammar patterns.

This standard is more for narratives, not poetry.
