What Do You Remember / Que Recuerdas?: Memory Poems at Darwin

This week at Darwin, we wrote our final poems for this school year. Our focus was things that we remember–whether going to the movies with family, a day at the park eating ice cream, or even just the walk to school every morning. Here’s this week’s featured poets!

Ms. Garcia, 2nd grade, Spanish

Where I Went Bella

I went to the movies
I went to a park with my dad
I went to my aunt’s house
I saw a hammock and
I will sit in that hammock.
I wish my dad could
change his temper
whispering instead
of screaming

Untitled Dena

I remember that I ride an elephant
and feed it at Thailand
I remember that we was
in a hotel with my family
I remember that I feed
a fish with my aunt

Untitled Olivia

I love it when I see the water
I love when you hug me
I love it when you talk to me
I love it when you play with me.
