Poetry Unit Study: Poetic Forms
Great tips for teaching poetry. I like your idea of copying favorite poems into a notebook or journal. That can help a child make the poem her own. I'm also really interested in your book/CD suggestion. Sounds like a great resource.

Stuffed Owl Toys
I love these owls! My granddaughter is fascinated with the fact we can sometimes hear owls at our house. She may need one of these.

Wizzley writing
I think that those of us who have jumped on board the Wizzley train at its inception are going to be well positioned when the site rockets to success.

Plush Yorkie Dog Yorkshire Terrier Toys
They are very sweet aren't they. We love dogs in this family, we've had a Border Collie, Airedale, Shiba Inu and Australian Cattle Dog. I don't think there is a dog breed that I don't like! It's really hard not to hit the buy button when you're ...

Stuffed Labrador Toys
Yes I think most kids are very lucky these days because the range of toys is fantastic although, as a parent, sometimes a bit overwhelming too. Too much choice makes it harder. Thanks for stopping by :)

Anagrams and Other Word Games
We always played those two games, too, Lou. I like the portability of Bananagrams and Zip-it and Appletters. They still have that sensual quality of holding the tiles.

Do You have Pet Peeves?
thanks ethel for you fine comments. I know what you mean, I use to work the window at the USPS and the number 1 complaint I heard from our customers was the apathetic attitude of some of the window clerks. Please accept my apologies...
