Indispensible resource

Jacqueline Sweeney is awesome --ANY of her books are well worth purchasing, especially this one. I have used this in grades 1 through 6 and always get great results.

A wonderful, easy to implement resource of poetry ideas.

This book is one of my favorites. I use it throughout the year. My students love the activities and other teachers have asked how my students write such marvelous poetry! Each activity is well organized and easy to teach. There are examples of each exercise to share with the students. I highly recommend it.
