Spring 2010 Information
Join Project by April 1
You will be provided with a classroom blog page to post your student poetry.
Post “About Our Classroom”
by April 10
All participating classrooms need to post a first blog message that provides information about their classroom. This can include like grade level, size of class and school, number of boys and girls in the classroom, favorite authors, poetry styles/genres studied, etc.
Pay Project Fee by May 15
We are requesting a $15 donation to The Literacy Workshop for each class (30 students) you register. Teachers wanting to enroll several classrooms will be asked to divide their students into groups of about 30 students.
Post Student Poetry by May 29
Post all of your student poetry to your blog. You will be able to copy and paste. Please follow any security rules for students that your school may have in place (i.e. only first name and last initial, no images that might serve to identify students).

Throughout the project students and teachers will be able to read all posted poems and comment on them. Teachers will receive notification when a comment has been added, and have the ability to delete or edit any inappropriate comments.
Project Archived on June 30
All access to posting poems and comments is closed. The poetry slam will be archived through the end of the school year.
