The students have had some great ideas but we have struggled to get them off the ground. One that seems to be coming together is an initiative to raise awareness of the Zaidee Rainbow Foundation. This foundation encourages others to donate their o...
Hi Stephanie,
I really like the rhyme scheme in this poem. It reminds me of some of the poetry of a man called William Butler Yeats. He wrote in the same style and his poems often dealt with weighty issues, as yours does. This poem makes me consi...
I completely and utterly agree with this. I see so many people who have so called "good" values and morals in life look at others as though they are the scum of the earth because they were born differently than them. It's not right that so many pe...
If the battle cry is given,
and the drums of war begin,
would you fight to save the peaceful,
or let the grief sink in?
Would you stand for all you know,
if the price became to steep?
Or would you swallow all your worries,
and hope to hell they l...
I really appreciate the subtle point you make about the ways in which we judge people based upon what they do or do not accomplish. People who don't finish school do lose quite a bit of status in our world, but I can think of so many people who ha...
Hmmmm....and I'm wondering...is it possible to make the world a better place without making ourselves better? And is it possible to make ourselves better without making the world better? I'm really curious about how you would answer this, Kathryn....

We will be wrapping up our work on Three Cups by creating Glogsters with the kids' reactions to the book. Each glog will contain images, writing, video that we will capture during which kids discuss the theme or message they have taken away from t...
The salesman came in and began to chat, as they do
about the family that he missed and the town where he lived
and the blacks infiltrating his neighborhood and the Jews who were hiding the money from him
and he thought that I agreed, because of m...
I am not inside your head.
I can't predict what you will say.
I can't control your feelings,
Even if I hope you feel that way.
Today you tell me one story,
And tomorrow you'll tell another.
How do I know what to believe,
Why should I even bother?...
The Global Poetry Project aims to provide a space for members to expand upon their cultural views through the writing and reading of poetry.
