¡Vamos a escribir! Club de poesía
Como poeta publicada y con un Máster en Bellas Artes en Escritura Creativa, tengo una perspectiva única sobre la enseñanza de la poesía. Para mí, la poesía tiene que ver con la exploración y la apertura de nuestras mentes a nuevas formas de creación.

In this club, students will get the chance to write their own ideas, listen to classmates' ideas and writing, and learn from classic and contemporary works of poetry. Topics covered may include the following: poetic devices (e.g. simile, metaphor, symbols, assonance, consonance, alliteration), formal poetic elements (e.g. meter, end- and half-rhyme, rhyme scheme, line breaks, stanza breaks), rhetorical devices and elements (e.g. anaphora, epistrophe, parallel structure), tone, mood, and structure, among others. Class Structure: Warm up, discussion of a poem, writing exercise. This is a writing-based and discussion-based course. Students will not be lectured to but instead be led through explorations of poetry and writing. We will engage in standard writing-prompt style writing exercises, as well as outside-the-box exercises like X marks the spot, erasure, and writing between the lines.
Metas de aprendizaje
By the end of each club, students will have produced prewriting based on their own ideas and on what they learned from our discussion.Students will gain a deeper understanding of the uses of poetry in our lives.

Orientación para padres
Poets are people, and people speak in different languages and have diverse identities. They may write bilingually or in dialects, they may be racial minorities, they may be multiethnic, and they may be from the LGBTQ+ community. Because of this, the poems we read will come from diverse voices and experiences. Poets often write to overcome difficulties in their lives, so this class may bring up feelings that students may want to discuss with parents after class. Topics could include loss of a loved one, exile, death, and longing. Because poetry is open to interpretation, students may also bring up topics that I have not anticipated. (This is not to say that all poems will be about difficult topics or about identity but simply that these ideas may come up.)

I have been writing poetry for over thirty years. I have been asked to do readings, submit to anthologies, give workshops, and be on panel discussions across the country. I am an experimental poet, meaning although I use some traditional devices in my work, I love experimenting with new ways of creating—this includes thinking of original writing prompts, reimagining how a poem can look, and pushing the boundaries of what a poem can do. I find that using unconventional methods can unlock ideas that writers may not have realized they were pondering. These methods can also unleash new ways of expressing meaning. Although I do not think that the reason for writing is to earn accolades, I will share that many of my students have gone on to win Scholastic Art & Writing gold key and silver awards.Reseñas
