April Poetry Writing Workshop for 4th and 5th Graders

Visiting poet Jayne Warren returns to the Westwood Public Library to give a poetry writing workshop for 4th and 5th graders on Wednesday, April 19 from 3 - 5:00. Jayne led a well-attended workshop during February vacation. Participants will learn how to get started writing a poem, how to edit their work, and will work with different poetic forms. Jayne has published poems in numerous periodicals, and her poem "Chairlift at Nashoba Valley" is included in the recently released anthology Rough Places Plain, Poems of the Mountains. Students are not required to have attended the February workshop. Participants can submit their poems to the library for inclusion in the 2006 Anthology of Original Poetry to be published by the library.
