Fourth-grade students will share a special educator this year with their own teachers. Natick poet Andrew Green will act as the districts' Poet-in-Residence, visiting each fourth grade class monthly until April. He will teach the students poetry and guide them in writing original verse that will eventually be published and displayed in town.

At the same time, Green - a former English teacher in Vermont - will work with the teachers, helping them "set up poetry based classrooms, where they can pay greater attention to language, word and sound," he said.
