Today, we took a 2 mile walk to Delco Park, and were visited by the author Rob E. Boley, who taught us about a few different types of writing. We learned how to make a "seed poem", which is where you take a random sentence of writing and use each word in the sentence to start a new line of text, to create a poem or story. This was a very creative and different way to write, and challenging as well. Sometimes, you have to stretch your brain hard to find sentences that start with the word that is given. This exercise is a great prompt to help you begin to write. In our journals, we practiced this, and some people shared their stories and poems that they created. His coming helped me to practice being creative, which is an important skill for anyone to have. When we got back from Delco Park, we worked on observations with Hershey Kisses. We had to write down descriptions using each of our five senses that pertained to the Hershey Kiss. We then used these descriptions to make a small booklet shaped like a kiss. We ended the day off with yoga, which was challenging, yet a lot of fun.
