This is some of the poetry she shared.

Nothing like dressing up for you big performance!  (Insert rolling eyes.)  The poster in the back was a display teaching the audience (her family) about poetry forms and the tv is on because it was playing soft music.

Yummy banana bread.  Every coffeehouse poetry reading needs food!

This week and next, the kids are working on presidential projects.  I’ll share them with you soon!
