Celebrate Poetry All Month Long with Read, Discuss, Do

 


Happy National Poetry Month!

We are celebrating National Poetry Month with a weekly poetry challenge all month long. To follow along, subscribe to our newsletter or check back here every Monday and Friday throughout the month of April for updates. 

Kickoff: Books and resources for National Poetry Month 

Week one: Read and write haiku 

Article: A Brief History of Poetry by Marci Whitehurst

Week two: Read and write odes

Article: Eight Creative Ways to Explore Poetry All Year Long by Rebecca J. Gomez

Week three: Read and write riddle poems 


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.
