It's Poetry Month!
I have always enjoyed poetry, and hope all children learn to appreciate it.
April is a fun month to begin and poetry is awesome all year long!
I've pulled together some sites and activities that I hope you will find fun and helpful!
Each and every April,
Since 1996
Kids and adults everywhere
Enjoy favorite poetry picks.
The Academy of American Poets
Want us to celebrate poetry
Great poetry can be lots of fun
That much we guarantee!
So each and every day this month
Seek out a few new poems
You are sure to find that many
Are really reading gems
Look up some real old poets,
Longfellow, Milne or Hughes
Read Silverstein or Kenn Nesbitt
To giggle with someone new.
We hope that each day this April
You will try one new thing
Read, or write, a poem or two
You'll find it quite amazing!
