Happy Poetry Month!

I'm taking the advice from the poet who has given so much to help us all, including students and teachers, write poetry. I'll be moving from A to Z, obviously needing to combine a few to make it all come out to 30. FYI—Sometimes, Paul Janeczko offers a prompt to write a poem that begins with the specific alphabet letter instead of a poem type. It will be fun to be open to writing in all kinds of ways!

Q is for "Question"

What does a child know?
At school, you line up in a row.
A ball’s to bounce and catch and throw,
and most things happened long ago.
What does a child know?
Of whispers saying ‘grow, grow’,
but yearns to learn the facts that show
why minutes travel awful slow.
