Poetry is language at its most distilled and most powerful.- Rita Dove
Our language arts class has started a poetry unit. We have discussed various components of poetry (stanzas, alliteration, repetition, etc.) as well as started writing our own poems. Students started with writing a narrative poem. We will be continuing our poetry unit during language arts class. However, I introduced two fun poetry websites that allow students to explore the world of poetry. I have included the links below.

Happy exploring!
