Well-Wishing and Poetry Writing – Mar Vista

October 5, 2016 @ 10:00 am - 1:00 pm

In this field trip, the students – led by our volunteer Storyteller – review the different characteristics of a poem and several poetic techniques. With the help of volunteer Scribes, who work with small groups of students to help with brainstorming, poetry writing, and transcribing, the students will write three poems: a list poem written together by the entire class, an ode written together in small groups, and finally a narrative poem the students write individually. The volunteer Formatter/Editor collects and transcribes the poems into a book template and reads through everything with an editorial eye. At the end of the day they will read out loud from their newly-published book of poetry that they get to take home with them.
