WFMW 30 days of poetry

Posted in WFMW

I love poetry. My kids just roll their eyes when I burst into verse, which happens more frequently than you would expect. I grew up devouring my mom's copy of Best Loved Poems of the American People, and fell in love with poetry all over again when I discovered Donne and Milton and Wordsworth in college. So I am very excited about this-- 30 days of poetry for kids. Instilling a love of poetry in my kids works for me.

We just started getting back into poetry this year in our little homeschool. We were working through A Child's Garden of Verses and we still are memorizing selections.

But I just found a great ballad that goes along with our history study and we shall be studying that for the week!
