I gave my students the guidelines for our Poetry Cafe activity which will be due on Friday, Dec. 13.  I am encouraging them to read poems by different poets, especially ones they are not already familiar with. I would really love for everyone to discover a new poet and new poetry that he or she finds interesting and engaging. 

It was great meeting with all of you last week.  Once again, I want to thank you for the wonderful support you give your children. Enjoy them - and all your family and friends - over the coming Thanksgiving holiday!
