Blog 8: book club presentation 1



I watched an ignite presentation for the books Practical Poetry and Don’t Forget to Write. Both books seemed very interesting but I think I might actually want to buy Practical Poetry for a lot of reasons. 

1: I love poetry and I think it is a great thing for children to learn to read and produce. 2: from what the presentation said, it looks like it could be filled with a lot of great activities which I am always interested in accruing. And lastly, 3: poetry can be used in other areas besides just English, and I learned that through the ignite talk. This book is definitely one that I was to add to my reading list for break. 

Don’t Forget to Write peaked my interest when I was trying to figure out what book I wanted to use for this project; but I am glad I chose the book that I did. Don’t get me wrong, this seems like a great book. The activity we did was really fun. I really enjoyed bringing out the creative side in ourselves and making up an amazing vacation we would go on (I think my groups was the best!).
