I enjoyed making last week’s video for “The Sofa Ate My Father” so much that I figured, why not do it again? I’m not sure if I’ll be able to make a video for every new poem I write, but it seems like a worthwhile goal, so let’s give it a shot. Here is a video for this week’s poem, “Annette the Detective.” Enjoy!
I’ve been hearing from teachers that their students really like watching me read my videos. I always record audio for each new poem that I write, but I don’t record a lot of videos because they take so much longer to create. But, I think I’ve finally figured out a way to create them a little quicker so, I hope to start posting a lot more videos on Poetry4kids and on my YouTube channel. Here’s this week’s poem, “The Sofa Ate My Father.” Enjoy!
I recently had the pleasure of being interviewed by Dr. Sam Bommarito for his literacy blog and podcast about my work and website. It was super-fun chatting with him about poetry and even sharing a few poems. You can read his blog post here or watch the interview below.
Here’s another new video of the poem “Lunchbox Love Note” from my book When the Teacher Isn’t Looking.
Here is a new video of the title poem from my book When the Teacher Isn’t Looking.
Since this is one of the most popular poems on the website, I thought it should have a video to go with it. This is “Good Morning, Dear Students” from my book When the Teacher Isn’t Looking.
For those of you who are looking forward to Halloween at the end of he month, I decided to release a brand new video, along with my newest poem, “My Creepy Costume.” I hope you enjoy it!
With Halloween coming up soon, I thought it might be fun to post some videos of spooky poems. This first one is a video for my poem “I Think My Dad Is Dracula” from the book My Hippo Has the Hiccups.
