Poetry is one of the oldest forms of writing and may even predate literacy itself (as a mnemonic device, oral history was often told in verse). And since 1996, schools and libraries have been celebrating the art form every April with National Poetry Month.

To help you celebrate, we've gathered some resources for you and your students.

Pieces like the above tap into JSTOR's growing library of scholarship to help provide context for today's news and issues.
