October 5th-9th

Hola visitors!

We're so glad you stopped by. This week we published poetry here on our blog. The students began the process by collecting wonderings in their writer's notebooks. From there, we experimented with considering the five senses when adding detail. Some of us utilized comparisons in our writing to elicit vivid imagery in our poetry.

We drafted and revised and edited and ... alas, made it to publication on the blog.

Enjoy!
