A Note Slipped Under the Door: Teaching from Poems We Love

Rating:
Summary: The New Millennium Must
Review: A Note Slipped Under the Door by Nick Flynn/Shirley McPhillips is THE "how-to-teach-poetry" book of the new millennium! The format is a wonderful blend of easy to re-create lessons and an extremely well-written text with stories, anecdotes, and poems that will have you laughing and crying...but definitely eager to read on. As I read the first few chapters one Sunday night, I couldn't wait to get into school on Monday to try out EVERYTHING I'd learned.
