Ha - I just looked at The Red Wheelbarrow with students the other day ... the lesson far simpler than even the poem. Can't say I could add any value to their understanding of it, but they caught my enthusiasm. And now I am the richer for their creative writing efforts.
Me and Glenn Colquhoun, to whom we sent a couple of student illustrations of his poem 'The First Lesson', which he loves.
The reward of teaching for me has never been the money, working 9-3 and the long holidays.
Love the photos of the car bonnet and yes I remember those simplicity patterns well.
