Poetry



Start looking for a poem for our Poetry and Chocolate Day on February 14.  Select a poem that you REALLY like.  Song lyrics work if they are in poetic form.  (Most are!)  You will present your poem on February 14 -- and bring chocolate or another treat to share if you would like. 


You may present your poem as a dramatic reading, a power-point, a video, an attractive handout, a reading by the class led by you, or another idea you've come up with that Ms. Dorsey approves.  You do not have to memorize your poem.

Your presentation may take up to two minutes.

Hi there would you mind stating which blog platform you're using?

I'm looking to start my own blog soon but I'm having a tough time

choosing between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is

because your design and style seems different then most blogs and I'm looking for something completely

unique. P.S My apologies for being off-topic but I had to
ask!
