humbling experience
we're doing poetry right now.
they say that your own experiences guide your construction of any learning. those experiences can be particularly relevant when it comes to interpreting literature, and especially poetry. they say that you see/write about what it is you know best.
if my students' poems/journals/analyses are anything to go by, then what they know is
Poverty.
and racism.
and violence.
and justice.
and Dignity.

ooh are you allowed to share poetry?
theirs? unfortunately, no. (we used to email bits of our esl students' work around in japan, but there are privacy issues here). some of the kids are doing great stuff, too.
