AMAZING

Today was one of the greatest day of my career. My students are publishing poetry. It is beautiful. In all of my 12 years of teaching, I feel like this has been the most valuable teaching tool- poetry. I have learned so much about my students, their fears and their dreams. It has been so rewarding.... THIS makes me proud to be their teacher!

    Orange is the taste of a juicy ripe orange.
    Orange is the shiny bright sun shining on my face.
    Orange is the feel of a cat purring.
    Orange is the moon shining down to the ground.
    Orange is the bees buzzing.
    Orange is the sky in the evening.
    Orange is the roar of a tiger growling.
    Orange is the sound of the birds singing.
