On a repeat visit to an elementary school, a student from the previous year’s workshop stopped me in the hall and told me that he had taught poem-sketching to his entire family, and they had turned it into a car game for their summer vacation. Each family member took turns making up word groups that included things they saw along the roadside and in their surroundings—barn, field, bridge, cow, hawk, kudzu, cornflowers, cloud, and so on—which they then turned into poems. All the family members took part. They repeated the game at the beach, the destination of their vacation. When they returned home, they made an album of their vacation containing both photos and poems! First my student and now my teacher, he added, “Maybe you’d like to pass this along.”
