Journal of Adolescent & Adult Literacy, v44 n7 p612-21 Apr 2001
Presents a model for motivating seventh- and tenth-grade Ethiopian students to write poetry about their personal feelings and experiences. Describes four strategies for the poetry workshop: acrostic, lune, counting pattern, and one that explores feelings and personal emotion. Notes that all exercises encouraged children to express themselves on things they cared about, no matter what their feelings might be. (SG)
