The Poetry Friendly Classroom is a series of videos published by BookTrust. In each and every video, Michael provides tips and tricks on running a school for poetry. There are 14 parts to the series.
In these videos, Michael wears a navy blue jumper, grey undershirt and stands in front of a white and grey painted wall, much like his performances of poems from The Hypnotiser uploaded on the Kids' Poems and Stories With Michael Rosen channel. These were likely recorded around the same time as those videos (at the latest February of 2008).
