Throughout the month of April, which is poetry month, we each had to come up
with a poem. We were inspired by a book called Poetry Tag. We started with a
poem that was called Green Door. Each poem had to relate from at least one thing from the poem that the previous person wrote. We think that it was a great experience.
We started with a poem that was called Green Door by Mary Lee Hahn. This is
the tags in order:
Ms. Kilpatrick = Revolving Doors
Ms. Sigel = Green
Jensen = Tomorrow
Elliott = Freedom
Ryan = I Don’t Care
Anthony V. = Unstoppable
Riti = On the Court
Anthony S. = Baller
Peter = Baseball
Brad = Flash of Light
Amanda = Enjoy Life
Jackson= Forward Not Back
Henry= Fly, Fly, Fly
Dylan = Just Try
Meghana = Try
Justin= Don’t Give Up
Cameron = Try Your Best
Olivia = The Differ
Pranav = Differences
Sadie = Me and You
Tishya = Life
Emily = Gift
Ashlyn = Redwood
Ella = Around the World in Many Ways
Lizzie = Imagination
Keelan = Time
We think that through the Tag Poem experience we learned a lot about poetry.
Our writing has improved through this experience, as well. Some of us liked it
more than others but it really was a helpful experience for us.
