Poetry Workshop
February 26 and 28, 2002

Ellen Kort, the State of Wisconsin's Poet Laureate, hosted a poetry workshop at Grant Elementary School in Sheboygan in late February.

Ellen guided 3rd, 4th and 5th graders through a series of exercises to bring out their inner poets.

Check out the video to see some of Ellen's techniques to stimulate the minds of the youth.

Check out the final March 12 performance at the Sheboygan Theater. >>
