Poems from Homeroom: A Writer's Place to Start

I love this book! Kathi Appelt presents some of her own poetry with the inspirations behind each poem and suggestions for students trying to write their own. There are many good writing prompts, and she explores different styles of poetry. I found this to be a very useful resource as a middle school ELA teacher.

Great gift for your high school poet

My daughter enjoys writing poems and really enjoyed these age appropriate poems written by her peers
