The article starts with a presentation of results of a survey among Slovene high school language teachers. The survey evaluated how much and in what way the students are encountering contemporary Slovene poetry in their lessons. One key question addressed is whether the poetry of the younger poetic generation is also occasionally discussed in class. In the second part, based on examples of good practice, attractive methods of discussing contemporary Slovene poetry are illustrated, and why it would make sense to start using it before the final year of high school. Using intertextual reading can be a method that allows students to encounter the work of younger poets, while strengthening the knowledge required by the curriculum and making school lessons more attractive.
