In the classroom,
words fill the air,
hovering above student heads.
I blow gently and
floating words drift,
falling into outstretched hands
dropping into open mouths
forming ideas,
transforming notions,
dribbling out their pens.
The magic of teaching 🙂 felt like you put a spell on them all 🙂
lol
I try!
Sometimes the air is electric and I wish everyone could read their work, it is so humbling and amazing when that happens
Last year my creative writing students published an anthology. I think it’s pretty great: http://www.amazon.ca/Pieces-15-Mrs-Shawn-Bird/dp/1514233754/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1442348240&sr=8-1&keywords=%22Pieces+of+15%22
Like the imagery here.
Thank you.
You just keep getting better!
Thank you, Melody
