I collaborated with an ELA teacher on a 10th grade class that is learning about the various nonfiction resources in our school library. The students had to work in pairs, choosing 5-7 books from our poetry section. They then had to create a poem using the titles on the book spines. The students grumbled a bit at first, but they eventually enthusiastically shared their poems. Check out more of their creations on the FA Library Flickr photostream. You will even find a rap version by two of our students. I had kids in the library for study hall during the same class period that overheard our activity, and commented that it looked like fun. I will definitely be doing this again!
They were great pictures ! Thanks for sharing.
