Today is Poem in Your Pocket Day!
It’s a day where people celebrate by selecting a poem, carry it with them, and share it with others throughout the day at schools, bookstores, libraries, parks, and workplaces.
The poem that I am sharing with my students and with you is from The Crossover by Kwame Alexander. Its title is “Basketball Rule #3”.

What a great poem to share with your students. I just requested the book at the library–can’t wait to read it. Thanks, Amy!
Enjoy! It’s a great one!
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE! I’m going to write this on my board at school today. Great poem to share with everyone! Thank you
