Quarantine-Inspired Poetry
Ms. Borelli’s ninth-grade English class was assigned to write concrete poems using items that has helped them get through quarantine. They first explored multiple examples (including the cover of the book they are reading called The Crossover), and reviewed the structure before they were off on their own to create their poems.
A wide range of inspirational items were present in the poems, including a bottle of hand sanitizer! “Sign of the times” sure does come to mind when reviewing this selection of poems.
