I've been teaching a poetry for children and young adults class to MLIS students at TWU. It's my second year. Thanks to the venerable Dr. Sylvia Vardell, who taught before me, I have had an excellent curriculum to use.
For their midterm, students are asked to create a video of a poem which several poetry friends have donated. Originally, I was to teach for just a year and then last fall, I was asked to return and teach. The class was returned to the program. Because of the late notice, I have only had ten students this year. They are a wonderful dedicated group. You know how I love featuring student work of all ages. Today I am featuring:

On Saturday, the last four videos of the TWU students will be shared.

Tricia at The Miss Rumphius Effect is hosting last Friday's Poetry Friday. Was subbing in a first grade classroom. It was just before their spring break. They were chatty. I was tired and I couldn't get it done for Friday or even yesterday. But since tomorrow begins National Poetry Month. I want to share what will be happening here.
I am so excited to be featuring these authors. And so thrilled to be sharing ten poetry videos created by my ten Texas Women's University students featuring poems by some of our Poetry Friday Poets. There is still time to share your favorite (or two poet or poems.
Stay tuned. Tuesday, April 2, 2024, I will have the next line for the 2024 Progressive Poem.
