What’s do you think is more important, the answer or the question? This week we read excerpts from Pablo Nerudas The Book of Questions and talked about some of the answerable and unanswerable questions that we wonder about. After brainstorming students got to work on their question poems, and came up with so many silly, goofy, and wild ones. Enjoy this week’s poem!
