Benefits of Poetry

• Inspires both the teacher and the student
• Excellent source of information
• Fun, factual and intriguing

I have found poetry to be both close to my heart emotionally, as well as educationally.
Teaching through poetry is an excellent way for your students to express themselves, either through role playing, reader's theaters, or simply writing poetry.
Included in the poetry links you will find both original poetry, and some of my most loved inspirational poems. Please browse through them to get a better understanding of my character and my passions.
