For Swift Elementary School’s first poetry session for 2020, I’m afraid I got a bit carried away! That means I came into the classrooms with too many ideas, too many questions, too many poems to read aloud, and too many instructions for students to grasp firmly in the time allowed. My apologies! Still, our time together was special: I am grateful that students were eager to let me know that they remembered things we’ve been learning in previous lessons. They brought good energy to the practice of writing poetry, and the teachers provided me with helpful feedback. Thank you!

A poem about me
Kundan B.
My name is Kundan
And I am a son
And also I am creative
And also I am smart
I am also playful
And powerful
And I am fast

I am a boy silly and funny
I can hop like a bunny
I am nice and so good
I am fun and mad so I am
happy no I am not!
