Poetry abounds


Rachel Rose works with La Conner 5th gradersLast week it was Tony Curtis, this week it was Rachel Rose and Kathleen Flenniken. Students wrote group poems, sang songs, shared metaphor and simile and just plain enjoyed the language. Thanks to all of our visiting poets for broadening our horizons during these wonderful session!
