Teach Poetry to Children - Poetry Improves Writing Skills

Children Learn Lots by Writing Little @ MyStoriesAndPoems.com

This Poetry Zone is brought to you by MyStoriesAndPoems.com {MSAP}  for the purpose of introducing MSAPs innovative program that teaches children to use poetry-writing to improve their writing skills. While using MyStoriesAndPoems' step-by-step process kids improve their writing skills and reinforce Language Arts content standards they learn in school. This writing improvement technique is fun, it makes becoming a better writer fun, and... one of the best parts is writing improvement is accomplished by writing short verses rather than pages upon pages of data!

MyStoriesAndPoems.com offers in-class and online Poetry-Writing Workshops. These workshops are great for spicing up classroom learning, attaining Girl Scouts badges, and plain ol' every day fun for children. MyStoriesAndPoems.com also offers children's poetry-writing contests for ages six to sixteen.

Fill Art Appreciation Gap Left By Educators

With so many schools teaching to tests and eliminating arts from class curricula children are becoming more deprived of opportunities to reasonably experience beautiful art forms such as music, painting, drawing and poetry. For this reason, MyStoriesAndPoems.com [a poetry writing website] has taken on the role of filling the ever-expanding gap left by the education system in the field of poetry writing.

An intentional beauty embedded in MSAP's program is that participants learn about poetry and improve everyday writing skills at the same time. MyStoriesAndPoems created the program this way so that teachers may include program features in their class curricula without straying from mandated teaching criteria. In addition, parents and other guardians can use MSAP's program to provide productive online acitivities for their children.

Many children go online to play games and goof around for long periods of time. MyStoriesAndPoems believes spending short periods of that time performing simple reading and writing tasks improves children's academic perceptions while still allowing ample time for goofing around.

In addition, to improving poetry understanding and writing ability, students participating in MyStoriesAndPoems' program also improve their reading comprehension. This improvement unfolds through MyStoriesAndPoems' "Theme-Stories" which are used during portions of the poetry-writing process. Visit me, R. Renee Bembry, at MyStoriesAndPoems.com to learn more about my innovative writing improvement program.
