~Poetry Throughout the Year~

Mckell's class had a special program for us parents.  They recited all the poetry they learned throughout the school year.  It was a darling program.  Mrs. Powell truly went above and beyond the call of duty to prepare for this program  The kids did GREAT!

Mrs. Powell introducing Mckell.  Mrs. Powell had written a poem to intoduce all of the students in her class (I wish I would have written down what she said about Mckell).

I know this picture is blurry, but this is all I could get of Mckell as a witch.  I really liked that each child had several parts in this program.  Usually when you have a program, each child has 1 part, but with this class program each child did several things, which was fun.  Mckell was an excellent witch!  Her facial expressions cracked me up, as she went around scaring her classmates while they recited a poem about a witch. Too cute!

Mckell was able to show us a Frog and Toad Readers Theater that she made, as well as a poetry book.  They have been busy this year.  It was fun to see all that they have done.  Second grade has been a great year.  We were so lucky to have Mrs. Powell as a teacher!
