First, our students will participate in our 3rd annual Poetry Slam in the morning, during Town Meeting.
Curriculum Supervisor Beth Carr explains the event, and further poetry fun happening during the day:
"[At our Poetry Slam,] each class/cohort will "perform" a poem - with chosen images, music, dance...
"That will be followed by our own CCGS "Poem in Your Pocket Day." Students can choose a poem to recite to friends throughout the day (by heart or from a paper.) "
Students will receive prizes for sharing their carried poems.
We're looking forward to a fun Friday filled with our students reciting poetry they like and have created!
