Hi folks,
It was such a wonderful Coffee House yesterday afternoon. Kids took such ownership of their writing and were poised and confident sharing their poems with us.
In the swirl of goodbyes we didn't get out the envelopes with some writing samples AND the CD of the Play, if you ordered it. I'll have the file box outside my classroom today and Monday. Please stop be and pick them up. So sorry for the inconvenience.
I have an assignment for the kids. We didn't make copies of the Color Poems or the Haiku. If kids can type them up on google docs and share them with me, I'll get them pulled together into a class book. I can send that to our district print shop along with the I Am From poems, and get them out to kids in September. I just ran out of time this year.. But those Color poems were so cool, I'd love to have copies. Call it "Summer Homework".
Thanks again for all your support this year. It has been a wonderful experience for me.
All love,
Valerie
