students sharing poems on the playground

April is National Poetry Month. This spring Hebron Station School revived our annual Poem in Your Pocket tradition. All students and most staff members choose a published poem they love--or wrote an original poem--and share it by reading it aloud to a succession of students. Cross grade sharing was the norm. Each listener documents the share on the Poem in Your Pocket Passport. Today students shared poems in full sun on the paved area of the playground.
