The Favorite Poem Project, in cooperation with the Boston University School of Education, will hold the seventh annual Poetry Institute for Educators at Boston University in July 2008. Teachers and teacher/administrator teams across grade levels—elementary, middle, and high school—and across levels—new and experienced teachers, those who enjoy teaching poetry, and those who’ve shied away from it—will come together to learn about how to use poetry in the classroom.
The 7th Annual Poetry Institute will be held July 14-18, 2008.

The poetry institute was a reaffirmation of why I love poetry as well as a reminder of why I became a teacher. I aim to spark the same kind of love for poetry in others. I believe this week-long institute has given me the tools to do just that! Thank you!
