18 Great Poetry Websites

UPDATE–3 of these sites disappeared. I’ve deleted them. Now there are 15 Great Poetry Websites…

My fourth grade students are working on poetry for a few weeks and I have discovered some truly wonderful, fun-filled websites. Here’s my list, each one tested and approved by 75 fourth graders. Just click the picture to go to the website:

Acrostic

Haiku

Cinquain

Song Poems

Robo-poems

Poetry Engine

Splatter Poetry

Giggle Poetry

Want more? These are on my list, but I didn’t get to them this year:

1. Analyzing, reading and writing literature
2. Favorite Poem Project
3. Fourth Grade Poems
4. Funny Poetry
5. Glossary of Poetry Terms
6. Poetry forms
7. Poetry with a Porpoise
