Hi vhaddad!
Thank you for the wonderful suggestions for different kinds of poetry lessons. I teach 2nd grade, and I think my students could have fun and be successful with some of them. I love the renku poetry. I think collaborative projects are so meaningful and important. I love the idea that the student's (poet's) own voice in interwoven with their peers is fantastic. I would be a great lesson in using imagery for my young students. I am going to try the sijo as well, since it is less restrictive.
Thanks again!
