I visited www.fno.org

I checked out an educational technology journal called: from now on (fno). It was filled with links to interesting topics like up-to-date workshops on technology, e-books, educational activities, and my favorite subject, poetry. Under the poetry section there was an endless list of poetry by a writer named Jamie McKenzie. I read several poems, but my two favorites were "Standing Tall" and "Sweet Surrender." "Standing Tall" was about the late civil rights leader Martin L. King. It was very inspiring and heartwarming to read this poem. It would be a great poem to read to our students during Black History Month in February. The other poem, "Sweet Surrender," was a short love poem that I found fasinating. I'm a true romantic and I really enjoy poetry. Hopefully one day I will inspire my students to love it as well.;+)
