What a day!!
Thank you to everyone who came to #CLiPPA23 today.
For the performances, for the poems, for the kind words and the brilliant, brilliant support for poetry.
So proud of the @clpe1 team and so grateful. Thank You.
@RufusWilliam Not a course, but the @poetrybyheart resources pack a serious punch. 🙌🏾
The appreciation and recital of poems celebrates the power of language. Here's the poetry map I created to support me when I learned to recite Valerie Bloom's 'Time' by heart. 🧡👇🏾

🧵It's #WorldPoetryDay, and as the National Poetry Centre for Primary Schools, we have tons of poetry resources, as well as the latest research findings from our #TheBigAmazingPoetryProject survey, which show the importance of poetry for children: https://t.co/pQ2IIbDIqu
@AlyxP1@clpe1 Such an absolute and genuine pleasure to work in partnership with you @EarlyTrain and @PoetryVal on this. The survey tells us what’s needed, now to work together on putting it into practice!
Children are enjoying the new Poet-tree display in the downstairs library. A numbered envelope, spin the Wheel of fortune and read the poem in the envelope with the number you land on. Poems by contemporary/classic poets, different forms, funny, sad etc. @moses_brian@jonnybid
