If you and/or your children/students participate in any of our challenges this month, we'd love to hear from you. You can email us or tag us on Instagram (use the hashtag #RDDPoetryChallenge or #RDDPoetryMonth). We will be sharing some readers’ poems in a round-up post at the end of the month, so if you’d like your poems to be considered, please let us know when you send them. Be sure to send them by Sunday, April 27 if you want them to be considered for the round-up.
