I taught 5th grade for several years and had writer's workshops several times per week. Kids at that age are just discovering the love of writing and it's so important to get them started right. Kudos to you, and more importantly kudos to the kids. I'm sure they'll have a great time. <abbr><em>LisaNewton’s last blog post..<a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/TravelinLocal/~3/506233934/" rel="nofollow">Californian’s Want Wetlands</a></abbr></em> I love the idea.

I would never have been interested in writing if not for my fourth grade teacher who introduced me to poetry. I loved when she read to us and when she gave us a chance to write. She encouraged me early and put one of my poems, about clouds, into the school newsletter. I remember picking up a copy at the principal's office (where students went to get them to bring back to class). I must've read the poem 500 times as I skipped back to class. Of course the fact that she was incredibly cute might have had something to do with why I wanted to impress her with my poems. Great idea you have both started! Kudos! That is awesome!
