Last week was Thanksgiving and the 3rd-5th grade poets of Hale Elementary celebrated by reading and writing poems about giving. Together we read the poem “How I Give,” by London S a student from MLK Academy. In her poem London lists ways in which she could help her community. I give cards on birthdays/I give canned goods/ I give advice to those who need help/ I give friendship. Inspired by London’s poem students wrote poems about the special things they can give to the people in their lives.
Below please enjoy these thoughtful poems and enjoy the turkey artwork that decorates the halls of Hale Elementary.
