Collaborative Student Haiku #PoetryFriday #PoetryLove

Last week a beautiful thing happened. My Kindergarten poets and their First Grade Buddies wrote haiku together for the first time. To learn more about this experience, you may read my Slice of Life post from this Tuesday here. For Poetry Friday today, I celebrate and amplify their poetic voices and collaboration.
