Whatever you are, be a good one. ~Abraham Lincoln
Poetry Friday
Pick a poem about whatever
captivates you –
endangered animals, a hotdog car, dinosaurs, or ants – you are
in charge of choosing and practicing. Be
an attentive audience for others. Then, be a
positively excellent performer. Make us sigh, or laugh and say, “Good
one!”

YOU are the attentive audience, and you are a good one. Thanks for bringing your students to life.
ReplyDeleteIt's truly wonderful that poetry can be about anything.
ReplyDeleteNow I'd like a poem about a hotdog car. ☺
ReplyDeleteIt's wonderful that your class is reading the poetry aloud - poetry written by others as well as themselves is really key in teaching performance skills, and how our understandings of words we wrote or words someone else wrote can differ.
