Last week 2nd graders at Swift welcomed Mr. McCaster and tried their hand at joining unexpected things together to make “Swan of Bees” poems. Some students selected favorites of the four types of poems they have written so far to read aloud to their classmates while sitting in Ms. Amato’s reading chair. This week we will “flip the script” and some students will have a sharing day while others will write “Swan of Bees” styled poems. Enjoy!
