I have been working on my plans for National Poetry Month for a while now. Yes, I know it's not until April, but with only 41 days left, that time will be gone in a flash. This has been my super secret project and I am thrilled that it's coming together so nicely.
Last year I wrote a series of posts called Poetry in the Classroom in which I highlighted a book or related set of poetry books and offered suggestions on how they might be used in the classroom. This year ... well you'll just have to wait and see.
I can tell you this—while working on this project I have learned that authors of books for kids are truly the kindest most generous people on the planet.

I had not even thought about National Poetry Month until this post and now I can't wait!

Looking forward to your secret being revealed....
ReplyDeleteThis is very exciting! Yet another reason to look forward to April...
ReplyDeleteWe are planning a big Poetry in Your Pocket day at my school, with a guest author/poet in residence! I love April.
