Australian Poetry - Australia's Cultural Network
Great Australian resource
This site at the Australian Culture and Recreation Portal argues that poetry
has shaped our Australian national character. Legend is what shapes national
character and our legends are told and retold across time and space through
poetry. The site contains a brief history of unique movements in Australian
poetry, links to works of Australian poets, and useful classroom resources.

Poetry Corner - an Online Project - great site simple to follow.
In this project students express themselves creatively when they write
poetry for a worldwide audience. Individual schools involved will be able to
make their own anthologies of poems from around the world. Poem formats will
be changed approximately every four weeks and students will be able to
immerse themselves into a variety of different poems. During the month poems
are emailed to a project coordinator where they are collated into an
anthology of children's poetry for all to read. This is a Global Classroom
project also listed on OzProjects.
