IT'S ABOUT TIME, TEACHERS, for NATIONAL POETRY MONTH!

 

April is National Poetry Month. Naturally, you need resources. As a poetry lover and poet, I've taken the time to make resources that will save your time! Check these out:

These POETRY POSTERS provide a quick reference for teachers & students about 20 types of poetry.  Each bright and attractive anchor chart describes a poetry type, as well as providing an example poem. Displayed in your classroom, they provide educational decor and student writing guides.

POETRY TASK CARDS provide a variety of ways for students to interact with virtually any poem you may be studying. Skills range from simple identification of high frequency words to homophones; punctuation to personification; and suffixes to cinquains. Interactions range from highlighting items on the pupils' personal copies of poems to creating poetry of their own.

Take your class on a POETRY SAFARI. This unit provides writing prompts, anchor charts, recording sheets, and craftivities. Your primary learners will love this journey!

Because I want to share my love of poetry, I have created numerous poetry units. These products offer original poetry, print ready for anthologies. Also included are scores of POETRY POSSIBILITIES: teaching points, skill lessons, and activities custom designed for each poem.

Some units focus on seasonal topics. 

Others focus on specific curricula and interests. Fill your academic year with poetry resources!
