I Want to Do Haiku


Having an icy walk this past weekend made me want to write about it in a special way.  Grace is going to teach us haiku here on Acorn Pies in a couple of days with a special post she has prepared.  Grace is the author of the beautiful blog, My Year in Haiku.  I can't wait to try haiku, and share the fun with my child, as well.  Thanks, Grace!

Hi Beth!
How fun! Our seventh grader just had a lesson about Haiku in her Oak Meadow World History/Fine arts text. She wrote two lovely poems in the Haiku way and is working on illustrating them. I've got a post up now with her poems. I'm off to check out My Year in Haiku now. Thanks for this.
Happy Creative Homeschooling
