If you switch to the edit HTML tab and use pre (in <>) before your poem and /pre (also in <>) after. It will keep your formatting, though the font face doesn't always look nice. It's the best way to keep spacing arrangements. See if if that helps with your snail poem.Triciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18350907653629775293noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2373615867496327293.post-45512458833607602952009-04-04T07:45:00.000-04:002009-04-04T07:45:00.000-04:00Catherine,I'm glad you like my blog.Mary Lee,I hop...Catherine,<BR/><BR/>I'm glad you like my blog.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Mary Lee,<BR/><BR/>I hope you and your students have a grand time writing mask poems.Elaine Magliarohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09829330276633865868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2373615867496327293.post-77432598550925491892009-04-04T07:08:00.000-04:002009-04-04T07:08:00.000-04:00Thanks for the list of poetry books with mask poem...Thanks for the list of poetry books with mask poems!

I compiled all their poems in spiral bound anthologies. Every year my students and I gave the different antholgies we had published that school year to their parents as presents during the last week of school.Elaine Magliarohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09829330276633865868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2373615867496327293.post-41543690106801419472009-04-03T10:35:00.000-04:002009-04-03T10:35:00.000-04:00Mask poems are great for kids who are a little ner...Mask poems are great for kids who are a little nervous about sharing their true feelings.

I really enjoy writing mask poems--trying to capture--as you put it the "psyche--of different animals, etc. My students really got into writing mask poems too.<BR/><BR/>There are a couple of books of mask poems that I wish were still in print: Karla Kuskin's ANY ME I WANT TO BE and Marilyn Singer's TURTLE IN JULY. They are exceptional collections.Elaine Magliarohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09829330276633865868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2373615867496327293.post-16809182152510944882009-04-03T09:54:00.000-04:002009-04-03T09:54:00.000-04:00What a fabuloso post!

I'm partial to bears, so the grizzy bear was a favorite (the ending is great)!<BR/><BR/>The snake poem is lovely to read aloud -- poems about them are better than encountering them on your driveway, like I did once (yikes)!<BR/><BR/>And I think you really nailed the psyche of the snail :).jamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07859083373087448194noreply@blogger.com
