Activity No.1

Poetry is beautiful.

However, children read less than they use to. This does not mean that they do not admire poetry.

They do.

But poetry is not what is used to be.

Written words read in silence.

Poetry today speaks loudly. Our task is to find it. It is interwoven in our daily lives…

Some too simple, some complex and meaningful…

Commercials, movies, and … wait, …..

did someone mention SONGS….

Yes, songs.

Not read in quiet, not read at all.

nonetheless, beautiful and full of poetry.

So, this year’s task is to find poetry in the world of music. Not too hard a task, one might say.

This year, students might not read as much, but the reading and writing is still here. And, the bonus is… most of the students already know they favourite “poetry” by heart.

So, who said students do not appreciate poetry?

They do, but in a more modern form.

So, the poetry month has officially started and students are gathering their findings.

We will try to post new poetry entries every week. Looking forward to reading (and listening) to modern poetry.

The posts will be available here:
