Invite Poetry Out Loud:
National Recitation Contest
into Your High
School!
Poetry Out Loud is a national program
that encourages high school students to learn
about great poetry as they memorize and perform
notable poems in a series of competitions
that begin in the classroom and will culminate
with national championships in Washington,
D.C.
 In
alignment with NYSAAE’s mission, Poetry Out
Loud builds on the strengths of arts-integrated
curriculum. A statewide non-profit service
organization, NYSAAE is dedicated to protecting
and strengthening
arts education through advocacy, information
dissemination, and professional development.
These services are provided to constituents
across New York State to ensure that
students receive an education that is rich
in all of the arts.
Upon
registration, teachers will receive dynamic
teaching tools that will invoke students'
excitement about literature and poetry recitation,
including sample lesson plans, audio CDs of
poets reciting their own famous works, publicity
materials for school competitions, and a DVD
of winning student performances from the
Poetry Out Loud
National Finals.

in the NYS Poetry Out Loud program is FREE
