The first week of the new year brought a fresh start to the young lives of the 7th grade poets from West Park Academy. We spent this session sharing the gifts we received over the holidays. The poets were asked if they could give any non-material gift to someone or to the world what would it be? We also discussed their new year’s resolutions; how were they going to better themselves in the new year. We hope their answers will be used as inspiration for their future poems. Check out their answers below!
