Poetry Friday for ES


Hello, Teachers!

On this page you'll find links to all my posts about teaching poetry in elementary school classrooms from PreK-2.  They'lll give you an overview of the kinds of activities we did and examples of children's work from my 15+ years of blogging (in roughly grade-level order, not chronological order).

Very few of these posts directly address students, but you can find the new WHISPERshout Poetry Magazine by clicking this link.  This online magazine is publishing poetry and accompanying artwork by kids ages 4-12, and each weekly issue showcases 4-5 poems with a little commentary on the poets' techniques.

Please browse now and check back soon, when I will have links to some downloadable materials that you might find useful.  Thanks for visiting!
