What are your favorite resources for memorizing poetry? I would like to find something I could use for both my kids- 6th gr DS and 3rd gr DD. Something simple, but good! Maybe with copywork? Thanks!

We use The Harp and the Laurel Wreath. It has selections for K-12th grade.

I like Ambelside on-line, too. It has lots of poems collected on-line so it makes it very easy to copy and paste and print out!

We're HUGE fans of IEW's poetry memorization. It's awesome and worth every penny!

Good luck!

We use and love The Harp and Laurel Wreath too, I've never used the other program although I've read about it. Here's what we're doing for 3rd grade (http://triviumacademy.blogspot.com/2008/04/poetry-memorization-3rd-grade.html)
