A Peom a Day for High School Students
Poetry 180 provides schools, classrooms, and homeschooled teens an opportunity to listen to poems by popular contemporary poets. Designed for pure enjoyment - there's no need to analyze or write about the poems. One a day is typically read as part of morning or afternoon announcements.

Each poem is accompanied by a brief bio of the author, background of the poem, and a link to more detailed information about the author's work.

Billy Collins, U.S. Poet Laureate, 2001-2003, is the host of this series that resides on the Library of Congress website. He provides guidance on how to use the poems, and an example of how to read one that is particularly helpful.

Lists websites for listening and teaching poetry, including high school.
