Black Out Poetry

I have seen many articles on Black Out Poetry but I wanted to share this great Prezi from Laura Randazzo with you.  She also has some other great poetry suggestions that you can find by clicking here

Black Out Poetry

If you are doing poetry this semester or next semester Black Out Poetry might be an option for your class.  Also if you teach Art you might be interested in trying this.  If your library has many weeded books or old magazines or even newspapers they could be used to tear apart.  You will need many coloured pencils and pens that your students can use and some space like the desks in my library.  Below are some examples of some high end Black Out Art.
