Elementary library students have been busy listening to, reading, and writing poems.  Some of the students are using the following templates on ReadWriteThink.org.  These templates are fun, free and easy to use.  If you have a few spare moments, give one of these a try!  Happy writing!  

Get your poetry juices flowing with the Poetry Idea Engine. Created with GoCyberCamp, this activity will allow you to write haikus, free verse, limericks, and more!
