Students writing for National Poetry Month

April is National Poetry Month and Poets.org offers lots of activities to consider. Here at WordSalad we’re working with a local elementary school where students are composing work to be read on the radio. I’m really looking forward to hearing what they have to say, creating programming around it, and sharing it.
