Ideas on essay questions for Robert Frost? (or any famous poet for that matter)?

It's best to write an essay question that allows students to choose from a variety of material for their answers. In the case of Frost, I always come back to his themes of life and death and his motifs of snow and rural America.

I would suggest giving them a choice of themes and a choice of motifs and letting them write about how Frost links them. "Stopping by Woods..." is an easy one to use for that. So are "Apple Picking...", "The Road Not Taken," and many more.

Best wishes!
