I Wish A Bird Can Dance At A Party With Me: Moos Wishes

The residency begins! The first week we have lots to talk about—what is a poem, anyway? Why are poetic lines different? This year at Moos we are working with 2nd and 3rd Grades. In all classes we had a great conversation about what poetry is, and they wrote of poem of wishes—real and imaginary.

I’m delighted to spend the rest of the year with these classes!

Enjoy the poems!
