National Poet-tree Month

To celebrate National Poetry Month, second-grade students wrote poems on leaves to add to our "Poet-tree!" These poems were created in a style called "Book Spine Poetry." This type of poem is made from choosing titles found on the various spines of books found in the library, gathering them around a central theme, and ordering them to make a poem. Students then come up with a title that best represents the book spine poem they have created!


Students from all grades and houses are welcome to write their own poems to add to our Poet-tree!
