May Madness Poetry Challenge
April is National Poetry Month. April is also a busy month for testing in our district. We decided to organize a poetry challenge at our school for the month of May and are inviting other classes from around the globe to participate! We are sure you've heard of the March Madness Book Challenges and our fourth grade class had a lot of fun participating in this year's Global March Book Madness Challenge! Our May Madness Poetry Challenge is similar, except instead of voting for our favorite books, we will vote for our favorite poems! Brackets will be posted beginning May 1st and voting will take place each week until we have a winner. Poems will also be uploaded so students can read the poems before voting!
