A special event today at school - a poetry reading. The culmination of their current literacy topic - poetry. I think it is wonderful the kids are covering this literary art form. Brian has been quoting poems these past several weeks and penned his own poem for today's reading.
Not the best picture, but Brian was quite theatrical during his reading:
Best bud George read a poem about a kid feeling sick - until he realizes it's Saturday. A very "current events poem", with all of the hullabaloo around the Swine Flu.
Brian and several of his classmates declare that "Poetry is Awesome":
Great pictures! I love "Sick" by Shel Silverstein. Classic!! Thanks for sharing. Looked like so much fun. =]
