(Ripp) | We welcomed Ms. Weber this week in blocks 1 and 2, they will send an email introduction soon. We continue to “rest in poetry” discussing what is poetry and creating some of our own. We have read and listened to poetry as well and I encourage scholars to find their own favorites. What is poetry? May I see your song lyric or book spine poetry? What are you reading right now? How did English go in 2nd quarter, what do you want to accomplish in 3rd quarter?
