Poem in Your Pocket Day Is Coming!
One of my colleagues and I collaborated to create a bulletin board for the 4th and 5th graders to use in case they come without a poem in their pockets on Thursday. (My colleague Kirsten created those awesome pockets below). Click here to find out which poems I selected to put inside of the pockets.

How are you carrying out Poem in Your Pocket Day in your school? Please leave a comment and share.
All of our students, teachers, and staff are carrying poems in their pockets. Students are writing their own poetry or copying a poem. There is a folder of poems in the teacher’s lounge for faculty and staff. All participants will receive a “Poem in My Pocket” sticker so that they can stop throughout the day and share their poem with other poem carriers. We are hosting a poetry cafe in the media center. Most classes PreK-5 have signed up to bring their class to do poetry slams by candlelight. We’ll post info on our blog on Thursday evening http://barrowmediacenter.wordpress.com
