    One of the things that I love about the Charlotte Mason method are the beautiful illustrations and when accompanied by poetry, what a beautiful education.

    Just had to stop back again to bless this lens. :)

    Good to think that poetry is being included in a curriculum. I liked the poetry notebook idea.

    I enjoyed this lens. Maybe I will take Sidney Sheldon on our 16 hour road trip : )

    We love poetry- but we read it mostly for enjoyment purposes only. My girls have enjoyed the Poetry for Young People series. Each book contains selected prose from a major poet and lovely illustrations to go along.

    Poetry brings a unit study alive with vibrant immagry, exciting new vocabulary and delightful ideas that might not have otherwise come to mind. Thank you for all these wonderful resources for learning poetry in a homeschool setting.

    I love the pictures of poetry on this page. My poetry lens is still growing, but I hope to make it as nice as this one.

    I need to add poetry to my language arts study in our homeschool. Some great ideas here especially for a reluctant Middle School boy. Have you ever used "The Word Artist" by Susan Kemmerer? Another great resource for writing poetry! Thumbs up!

    I really enjoyed this lens and will come back to digest it in more detail.

    You might be interested in the children's poetry magazine that I publish (a print, rather than online magazine). We homeschool our own kids and the magazine features poems from a number of homeschooled kids in each issue... though I don't actually make a big deal about that...kids are kids! The website is www.thescrumbler.com.

    What a fantastic lense! Thanks so much! I am a poetry fan and so is my son, I'm rather proud to say (His favorite poet is William Blake). I started a blog for him awhile ago, where I collect all his "online curriculum" (links and things I've gathered for him to explore online) and this includes poetry, of course! So thank you for giving me lots of ideas! Great squidoo-ing!

    O po-et-ry, I long for thee, to be with me, as I pee.

    As you can see, I am a true lover of verse.
