I hope you get a host of new IRA readersl lots of teachers were at my session and I told them great things about the Poem Farm and your Dictionary Hike. Thanks, too, for explaining about SoundCloud.

When I was taping those poems in the middle of the night, I was hoping they would be useful...and it is so good to hear that they'll be heard by children.<br /><br />Please let me know if your students record their own poems and if you'd ever like to have me publish them here. I use SoundCloud as it is free and easy to figure out.<br /><br />I am taking a few days off, so see you next Monday!<br /><br />a.Amy LVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16625469276544426664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6343349006357324362.post-20179613242219394252012-05-01T00:59:36.760-04:002012-05-01T00:59:36.760-04:00Thank you so much for sharing your entire collecti...Thank you so much for sharing your entire collection this way. I can't wait to read through it with my students. Tomorrow we are beginning a May Poetry Challenge (We were working on personal narratives most of April). I know many of my students will be inspired by your collection of poems. I really love that you have recorded yourself reading your poems aloud too. I plan on linking to your website for one of Reading Workshop activities, "Listen to Reading" and I have a new tech tool to explore too. :)Koreen Williamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06977777342739056741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6343349006357324362.post-5765287304016022402012-04-30T21:42:37.890-04:002012-04-30T21:42:37.890-04:00I loved the way you wrote "In a Station of th...I loved the way you wrote "In a Station of the Metro" Simplicity of chalk on rock is fitting for one of my favorite poems.

We have enjoyed the Dictionary Hike and will surely revisit to listen to you reading them. <br /><br />Wonderopolis - WOW! How exciting to have your great ideas featured there.

Congratulations on a very productive Poetry Month. <br /><br />~TheresaLooking for the Write Wordshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04556736797707525140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6343349006357324362.post-68025664578592385162012-04-30T11:55:03.450-04:002012-04-30T11:55:03.450-04:00Amy, I just read and listened to your poem hike.

I love "Bluegrass" with all the colors and the farmer's love for his cows and "Case" and the pairing of condominiums with amphibians. And I definitely think "Zenophobia" should be the actual dictionary definition of the word!
