POETRY ALIVE IN HENDERSON November 17-21, 2008

Founded in 1984, POETRY ALIVE! fields groups of two-person teams who travel to school districts worldwide. Their high-energy presentations have taken Poetry Alive! to a total audience of more than 7,000,000 in all 50 states as well as the District of Columbia, Guam, Puerto Rico, Saipan, South Korea, China, the Bahamas, and Peru.

Each year Poetry Alive conducts approximately 2000 performances, over 750 classroom follow-ups and 150 teacher workshops for an estimated 600,000 students nationwide. We also conduct several specialized on-site in-services of one to five days each year.

Not a canned, ?cookie-cutter? event, PA?s performance techniques are fresh and focused on connecting students to text. PA techniques can easily be customized to emphasize reading, writing or performance.
COMING SOON! TO A ELEMENTARY OR MIDDLE SCHOOL NEAR YOU!
