Poetry Month

Poetry Month at Glenridge

Jackson

This month at Glenridge elementary we celebrated National Poetry Month or NPM. NPM is a celebration of poetry for people of all ages and grades. In fifth grade on the 24th, we celebrated poem in your pocket day. Every student in fifth grade carried a poem around the school in their pocket and read it in front of our homeroom classes and to teachers and other students. We were also able to read poems for our CLAYMO groups during NPM and they were able to read their poems to us. Our experiences were great because we were able to hear all different types of stories and different types of poems from different age groups.T eachers and students were able to experience pieces of writing from kindregaten and first through fifth grade.
