Mrs. Gratiot's 4th grade class celebrated the end of their poetry unit with a Poetry Slam! To set the mood, we dimmed the lights, had a spot light, used a microphone, played coffee house music, snapped instead of clapped, and enjoyed blueberry muffins and hot chocolate while students shared the wonderful poems they wrote! We have some great poets here in 4th grade!

Mrs. Mead’s 5th grade class is preparing to start their poetry unit this week! With the new CKLA curriculum students explore poetry, training in methods and devices poets use and learning to read, write, and interpret formal and free verse poems. They will dive into examining poems from Emily Dickinson, Edgar Allen Poe, Walt Whitman, and Robert Frost, to name a few.
Tuesday night is going to be a black and white night! Go, Rangers!
