In preparation for our upcoming session at the NCTE (National Council of Te achers of English) convention in Orlando in two weeks, three bloggers are f eaturing four poets who will be on the panel: Lee Bennett Hopkins, Pat Mora , Jame Richards, and Marilyn Singer. We're trying to promote our session, o f course, but we're also trying to extend the conference experience for tho se who may not be able to attend in person. It was part of our proposal. We 'll also share session highlights AFTER the conference, possibly even video clips. We welcome input and interaction.
