Creative activities engage students in turning a story into a hippo rap, adding to a haunted house rap, and writing raps of their own. KidzPage is a wonderful place for students to investigate a variety of poetic styles and find inspiration for their own rhymes. This site, dedicated to the father of modern American poetry, houses all of Whitman's works as well as biographical information, manuscripts, notebooks, letters, and critical reviews. Although the materials here are not specifically intended for classroom use, the Archive in the Classroom section provides a useful collection of suggested activities and projects for teachers. If you like playing with refrigerator magnets, you'll enjoy this site.
