April is National Poetry Month!

March 31, 2020

Dear Students and Families,

April is  National Poetry Month. To learn more about this, visit the Academy of American Poets website. To celebrate, I will post a new poem on this blog daily from April 1st-April 30th. Students and families are invited to respond to the poem by replying to my post here or via email at my teacher account: sseyan@sjusd.org. This is not an assignment or an expectation-but I would be curious about your thoughts and interested in your responses!

To recognize and connect with my upper grade students in the after school writing group (College, Career, and Community Writer’s Program, or “C3WP”) who really enjoyed a writing task called “Would You Rather?”, I will be posting a “Would You Rather” prompt daily, as well. C3WP students, I can’t wait to read your Claims, Reasons, and Evidence in response to the “Would You Rather” prompts.

I look forward to connecting with you all virtually throughout the month!

Best,

Ms Seyan :o)
