POETRY COMIX
In a small group of about 8-10, we’ll read two recent books that treat poems like mini graphic novels, examining how the authors, Grant Snider and Renee LaTulippe, mix comics and poetry. We’ll use nature as one of our inspirations and try writing in different voices. After some editing, we’ll ink and color some of our best efforts. At the last session, we’ll present our work to families, and kids will take home their own copy of our published poetry anthology.
POESÍA GRÁFICA
En un grupo pequeño de 8-10 ninos, leeremos dos libros recientes que tratan los poemas como mininovelas gráficas, analizando cómo los autores, Grant Snider y Renee LaTulippe, combinan las historietas con la poesía. Usaremos la naturaleza para inspirarnos y probar a escribir con diferentes voces. Después de editar, entintaremos y colorearemos algunos de nuestros mejores trabajos. En la última sesión, presentaremos nuestro trabajo a las familias y los niños se llevarán a casa su propia copia de nuestra antología de poesía publicada.
