Okay, before the break I promised to post recordings we'd made of poems written in Alcott's 3rd grade and 8th grade classrooms. Well, after some technical difficulties I am finally proud to present these poems for your listening enjoyment. They are well worth the wait!
Most of the poems recorded in our 8th grade class were inspired by a reading and listening of Todd Alcott's "Television," with the exception of Julia's poem - she recorded a beautiful poem that she had written during one of our first poetry classes.
The 3rd graders were inspired by a reading of Emily Dickinson's "Bee! I'm Expecting You!"
