Young American Poetry Digest

LET’S GET KIDS EXCITED ABOUT WRITING!
In Library Class, 3rd and 4th-grade students read Today and Today, a book of haiku poetry by Kobayashi Issa. The students all composed their own unique haiku poem. Twelve students’ poems were selected to be included in this year’s 2109-Young American Poetry Digest. The 12 winning poems will be displayed on the Library hallway bulletin board. A copy of this year’s digest will be added to the TES Library collection.
  
Students’ poems were selected based on:
  • Creativity
  • Age-Appropriate language
  • Sensory/figurative images
  • Structure
  • Poetic technique
