Hi Ann, the class I'm teaching at the moment is very much a beginners class, that offers an introduction to haiku and related poetry. In today's session we were looking at renga. I started with a very brief history of renga then I wrote a haiku up for people to then write a response to. We discussed some ideas round how the response should relate to the haiku. We then did an exercise where everyone wrote a haiku on a piece of paper that was then passed on to the next person who wrote a response and so on round the group. The class participants all said they enjoyed it.

Juliet, I love that you had your students engaging so playfully by passing around the papers, randomly sharing & responding--what a fun idea! 💛
