Book Description
for Here We Go by Sylvia M. Vardell and Janet S. Wong
From the Publisher
HERE WE GO, a Poetry Friday Power Book for children, tweens, and teens, features 12 PowerPack sets that contain five elements each:
1) a PowerPlay prewriting activity
2) an Anchor Poem
3) a new original Response Poem
4) a new original Mentor Poem and
5) a Power2You writing prompt
PowerPacks = a fun and inspiring approach for a wide variety of readers and writers.
The way the 12 Anchor Poems are joined together here with twenty-four new poems by Janet Wong, they form a story featuring a group of diverse kids who are concerned about social justice and work together to raise money to fight hunger with a walkathon and school garden. Sylvia Vardell's inventive PowerPlay activities make it easy for writers to get inspired, while her Power2You writing prompts extend learning. Vardell also created extensive back matter resources for readers and writers.
