We are all poets-whether we know it or not-because we all have unique voices to share and stories to tell. An educator honors that truth with this book, a step-by-step curriculum that brings out and lifts up student voice through the art of slam poetry. Across four highly choice-driven course units, complete with modifications for all poets in K-8 classrooms, the author guides readers through activities and insights that will grow poets in your school and citizens in your community. At a time when students struggle to form empathic relationships at school, this title underscores the value of being open and alive to the world. These tools don't just spark creative expression; they go beyond, nurturing it from within as a gift to ourselves and a path to real connection with others.
