    April is National Poetry month. Poetry is a genre that the students have studied during library. We have a variety of poetry books on display in our media center. The students have a few favorites that inspire them to love reading poetry. Some students have also written their own poems to share with everyone.

I'm Bold, I'm Brave

I'm bold, I'm brave, I know no fear.

I'm gallant as a buccaneer.

Is that a hornet by my ear?

Gangway! I'm getting out of here!

SHARING

I'll share your toys, I'll share your money,

I'll share your toast, I'll share your honey,

I'll share your milk and your cookies too-

the hard part's sharing mine with you.

Bug

In the window of the washroom

At our school yesterday,

A little bug was crawling

In its little buggy way.

I whispered in its tiny ear

To not make any noise;

because it was a ladybug

And the washroom is for boys.

Family

Thank you family
for what you have given
and what we learned.
Thank you for us
and what we are.
I am thankful for my family

and I want to say
Thank you!

Life is My Virtue

Life is a story anyone can tell.
Life is what helped when I fell.
Life is what makes mine so well.
Life is my virtue I love so well.
