I find I Poetry as being something very important to incorporate into the classroom. I Poetry is written in first person and you have to follow a set of criteria. It allows children to use their imagination and have fun with writing poetry. It deepens students understanding of a specific setting, character or plot. I Poetry has children think about the deeper meanings of certain things. It gives children a specific imagery and descriptive language to use. When I am a teacher I want to publish my students I Poetry poems into a classroom poetry book. I think this is very important, because students love to see their final published work. I liked reading over the I Poetry power point because it gave many examples of actual students work. It was great to see what progress they make over time. Overall, I feel that I Poetry is very important and is something that the students will love to do. I cannot wait to use this in my own classroom.
