April is poetry month! To celebrate Jess Miller, Suzanne Averette and Kathleen Harrell collaborated to put together pocket poems in celebration of Poem in Your Pocket Day, Thursday, April 27th. In the hallways you'll find pockets filled with poems and information on Poem in Your Pocket Day. Below are the important things to know:
- have a pocket and a poem ready to share April 27th (both kids and staff)
- The pockets can be found in the hallways at Brassfield
- take and leave poems in the pockets, poem that you leave can be ones you and/or your students have written or buy authors you love...the only rule is they need to fit in a pocket
- be gentle (and tell your kids to be gentle) with the pockets
- more information can be found at Poets.org and ReadWriteThink.org
We hope to spread the news in coming weeks on BTV, but in the meantime share the information with your students and celebrate the wonderful world of poetry this month!
Happy Reading!
