Sometimes teachers get caught up in the day to day business of "school".  And sometimes it takes a very bright and thoughtful  student to wake that teacher up. After reading this poem, I was reminded of why I do what I do everyday. 

I thought I would share it on the blog. 


So, students, keep writing those poems and bringing them into school to share!!!





Oh how we love Chicken Soup with Rice!! 




Students: Read the poem at home with your family!  Have them sign it, and/or write a note.  Bring your poetry journal back tomorrow!


This student wrote a poem about folding paper-and then folded the paper!  Very creative! Keep writing those poems!!!





One student went home very excited last night and came back to school this poem:

Writing Station
In the class there's a 
thing called the station,
But not just any station
it's a writing station,
No one cleans it,
All night and day it's messy,
Like writing a messy poem.  

I translated for the spelling. This particular student has excellent handwriting, but purposely made it look bad to match the writing station (she also tends to be the one who cleans up the writing station!) 

Keep writing and reading poems!  Bring them in to share with the class!
