Sign Up Here for 2016 Kidlitosphere Progressive Poem!


Hello and Happy Poetry Friday! Be sure to visit Linda at TeacherDance for Roundup.

I am traveling today, feeling so grateful to be sharing my books with students and readers of all ages in north Florida. But I do have something important to share with you:

It's that time again! National Poetry Month (April) will soon be upon us, which means it is time again to sign up for our annual KIDLITOSPHERE PROGRESSIVE POEM. This year we are shooting for short lines, and Laura Purdie Salas will be launching our first line! The rest is up to all of YOU! I invite you to choose your day and add your information to this Google Spreadsheet.

Here's how it works:

Poetry Friday Friends and other poetry lovers are invited to join in a community writing experience during National Poetry Month (April).

What is it? a poem that travels daily from blog to blog, with each host adding a line, beginning April 1. Anyone who wants to join in the fun can sign up on the Google Spreadsheet! First come, first served.

Once we have a schedule, I will be send via email the HTML code to include in your post and/or sidebar so that readers might follow along/look back/look forward. And feel free to snag the above graphic!

Can't wait to see where our poem will take us this year! (To view poems from previous years, click on the Progressive Poem tab above.)

Happy Poetry Friday, everyone!

  6. Enjoy your delightful travels, Irene. I want you to know that I am delighting in your gift of your poetry books. I was in awe of the progressive poem last year and wonder if I can rise to the challenge. I won't know unless I try.
