Literature and Poetry Sharing Morning - Nov 2009



One of the mums here thought it would be a great idea if the children had the opportunity to share some of their favourite short stories and/or poetry with each other.  It could be original work or already published.
So, quite a few of us gathered, took over her lounge room and the morning began…
A couple of the boys are working on fantasy/allegorical works of fiction and it was exciting to hear their first chapters read out for us.  There were some spirited poetry recitals and some lovely narrations on favourite books.  All of the children were respectful and encouraging of one another, making it a wonderful environment in which to share.
What better way to finish off the morning than with "high tea"?
This has to be done on two tables to fit everyone!
