100 "Young Poets" selected for Publication in Young American Poetry Digest!
Congratulations go out to Midkiff Elementary students in grades 3rd-5th, on being selected for publication in the 2019 Young American Poetry Digest!
Mrs. Rios, Midkiff Elementary Librarian, taught 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students about the elements of Haiku Poetry and had students write and illustrate their own.
One hundred students' poems were selected and will be included in the next publication of Young American Poetry Digest, due out in October of 2019.
Poems were selected based on creativity, age appropriateness, sensory/figurative language, structure, and poetic techniques. This is the third year Midkiff students are selected.
Way to go Mavericks!
