On March 11th and 12th 2015 8A had a Poetry Soiree that was help in the library. It was a successful event, lots of classes came and loved our work. We had live performances, tables with our poetry board so the kids and teachers could walk around and have a look and we have workshops to teach kids how to write poems or use technology to present their poetry.
My poem I wrote on the book Rebound:
There was a boy named Sean.
In grade 7 he made some mistakes for friends, they made him think he was tough and brawn.
Now it's a new year and a new grade,
and Sean needs to stop all these charades.
On the first day of school,
he tried to stay calm and cool.
But he got into a fight,
And his year didn't start off right.
David was his opponent during the duel.
Even though David was in a wheelchair he was the most cruel.
As punishment Sean had to be David's host.
And David hated that the most.
As the year went on Sean and David became better friends .
But just like every friendship it had twists and bends.
David was having some troubles and Sean helped him out.
Now they are best friends without any doubt.
