The Favorite Poem Project, now in its 27th year, began with the idea that poems mean something deeply to Americans.
This is something many of us agree on but rarely have a place to discuss. So, let’s gather & share.

LGBTQAI+We will have LGBTQAI+ themed mad lib worksheets for students to be creative, have fun, and learn about the culture! This activity is more light-hearted and silly. We will also have a display with a prompt for students to anonymously respond with their thoughts/feelings/ideas about gender identity. This is a collaborative writing piece for everyone to share in a deeper, thought-provoking activity. We will also have a lot of poetry for students to just lay out and read if they wish! We strive to make this a safe space for all to come, relax, have fun, and just be who they are. Jesse & Tyler

Rhonda The Librarian's Reading & Research Review March Weather by rhondakwrites
"While ecocritical approaches to literary texts receive more and more attention, climate-related issues remain fairly neglected, particularly in the field of Shakespeare studies. This monograph explores the importance of weather and changing skies in early modern England while acknowledging the fact that traditional representations and religious beliefs still fashioned people's relations to meteorological phenomena" (Chiari, 2019).
"Deemed to constitute disposable bodies, disposable cultures, disposable polities, disposable societies, disposable epistemologies, disposable religions, disposable laws and disposable economies, the sacrificed are, in the age of climate catastrophism, once again reminded that they 'have duties to die', to become extinct in order to save the global spaceship that is sinking due to climate change and global warming." -- Project Muse
"However, we are still far from fully understanding what and how causes this variability. Why does the Sun continue to go on, on a rhythmic scale, the so-called solar cycle, without damping? How to better understand the complicated relationships between the Sun, the heliosphere and the many proxies of long-term solar activity?" - From Publisher
"In the end, there is the disastrous Democratic National Convention of 1968, the driving from office of Lyndon Johnson, and the election of Richard Nixon. Gaillard quotes historian Todd Gitlin in commenting on the rise of violence and disenchantment as the decade dragged on: 'Rage was becoming the common coin of American culture (Esposito, 2018).
"Your heart traps mine as summits catch storms. Call this to calm the rain shadow. What will remain?" From poem The Same Mountain Twice.
"Beginning in January 1692, Salem Village in colonial Massachusetts witnessed the largest and most lethal outbreak of witchcraft in early America. Villagers--mainly young women--suffered from unseen torments that caused them to writhe, shriek, and contort their bodies, complaining of pins stuck into their flesh and of being haunted by specters." Publisher
