All about Poetry ....

Inaugurated by the Academy of American Poets in 1996, National Poetry Month is now held every April, when publishers, booksellers, literary organizations, libraries, schools and poets around the country band together to celebrate poetry and its vital place in American culture. Thousands of businesses and non-profit organizations participate through readings, festivals, book displays, workshops, and other events.

In case you were not aware ... April is National Poetry Month. Since we are celebrating the poetry genre this month, I thought I would share some poetry resources that I have used in the past or recently discovered to share with other educators.
