Think about the teaching experience and the teaching of poetry at school. A narrative inquiry with Rosabetty Muñoz

Abstract

This article proposes a dialogue and reflection on the teaching of poetry at school. From a knowledge that is built based on thinking about the experience of the person who teaches. Knowing that it is configured alongside the stories, and thoughts of the teacher and poet Rosabetty Muñoz. It was approached from the narrative inquiry method, the epistolary writings that contain the teacher's stories are analyzed. Among the main findings are the relationship that the poet establishes between her beginnings as a reader and her teaching work, as well as the importance that she gives to poetry as a possibility of creation, attention and encounter, both with others and with the world. The thoughts and reflections that the encounter with the teacher provides, open new dimensions from which to think about the teaching of the poetic and confirm the important link between meanings, beliefs and pedagogical practices.
