The lessons are culled from over a decade of workshops with Typewriter Rodeo-teaching thousands of kids at schools across the country. Includes eight different ways to end poems and hands-on crafts, such as making a Poetry Sword.

Covers most major poetry skills, along with performing, revision, and using AI. Common Core & TEKS aligned.
