I found some cool writing prompts at a website I’ve been previously published at. I’ve used them with my students. I enjoy seeing what the children come up with.

On Saturday the 21st my Mom and I walked the Relay for Life. This year the air was cool, with a slight breeze. It’s so cool to see all the young people walking the relay. It’s a nice way to pay tribute to my Dad who lost his battle with cancer a year in a half ago.

A first grader suggested that I add what my dream is in the dove poem so I added that to the poem: http://www.roykindelberger.com/poemsideas-for-children.html Here’s a revision for my dove poem. I still can here the soft cooing in my ear. The air cool, before the summer unbearable heat…
http://www.roykindelberger.com/poemsideas-for-children.html Happy May! National Poetry Month was a great deal of fun for me as a reader, writer and teacher. This month I plan to submit a picture book in verse.
I just finished a YA book, Fallout, by Ellen Hopkins. A far cry to the verse that I’m writing but still an excellent book, her books inspired me to write poetry. I just started reading Newberry Medalist, Out of the Dust, by Karen Hesse. So here I go… |
