Poetry Collection
I??m making an effort to do more poetry with the kids and have an aim to collect together 100 poems that all children should know of ? and then make sure that mine do!!! A recent blog post yielded loads of suggestions in the comments and I??m going to gradually go through these, try them out on the kids and add them into what I imagine will be an ever increasing set of sections here.
I??ve started to do study sessions with some of our older home ed kids, so when I do those, I??ll link back to the relevant blog post too, which will have some links and ideas in it as well as linking here to an online version where possible.
