The "When I Grow Little Poem" that I posted ended up being a mini lesson on poetry writing and revising when I showed it to them on my smart board. Many of the students liked it and wrote their own poemsDeb Dayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00861392500601183208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-319624163132382197.post-76826893377443348172011-10-08T14:09:22.021-06:002011-10-08T14:09:22.021-06:00This poem reminds me of the one Amy LV wrote about...This poem reminds me of the one Amy LV wrote about finding a poem in her notebook -- a tool that increases the chance of poetry!Mary Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09078793537148794310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-319624163132382197.post-58296637286343949012011-10-07T13:45:10.937-06:002011-10-07T13:45:10.937-06:00Great fun!
