On Children Writing Poetry.
Rouse, John
Language Arts, v60 n6 p711-16 Sep 1983
Discusses two approaches to teaching poetry writing to children: a method approach that molds children's creativity into acceptable forms, and an experimental approach that allows children to try out personal feelings and different forms, which is more conducive to their perceptions, creativity, and developing sense of self.
