International Poetry Month – April 2023

Whether it be a sonnet or a cinquain, we encourage students to share their literary work and discuss it with one another. Students can use this project to develop their poetry knowledge and writing skills by sharing and discussing poems they have written, narrated and/or illustrated (optional) in an online Poetry Month community.

The Kidlink invites all students to participate in the International Poetry Project. To register a group of students, please complete the Kidlink/Moodle registration form.
