Teachers - My blog. https://t.co/1RVVTYZHHV has a number of mini anthologies of poetry that hopefully are useful for the classroom - Nov 5th, Seasons, performance poems, mini beasts etc. Are there any other areas that would be useful? Reposts appreciated.

Wow! I am often sent films of 'Iguana' but yours is certainly one of the liveliest I've seen. Well done everyone involved & thank you for letting me see it. You can find out why I wrote the poem here: https://t.co/sUFmHSww1T Love the T shirts too!
An amazing performance of ‘Walking With My Iguana’ from these members of the #GawberLuckyPennies. They would love to hear your thoughts @moses_brian 🦎 #GawberEnglish #BarnsleyIsBrill #PoetrySlam
