We are delighted to publish an article on the frequently neglected subject of poetry. Too often special needs teachers fall into the trap of concentrating on specific identifiable skills at the expense of richer language outlets. Brian Merrick and Janet Brennan remind us of the sheer joy of poetry and its particular applicability in the field of special educational needs. Their recommendations and selected lists are particularly helpful.
