520 |a Several suggestions for interesting students in poetry and word play in the language arts classroom are presented in this paper. Activities recommended to establish a climate in which language play is a natural activity and to help students make connections between their own word play and that engaged in by poets include: expanding concrete images; producing catalog lists of things students strongly like or dislike; working on exercises with figurative language and word arrangement; and constructing concrete and found poetry. An additional suggestion for evaluating what students have learned is offered--having them examine and react to computerized poetry. (AEA)
