Beatniks are cool

but not as cool as me.
Today we had our Creative Writing Coffeehouse and it was perfect.
Everyone brought food, we drank coffee/hot cocoa and everyone shared their poems. Some were heart-felt, some disturbing, some funny, and there was even one about a toilet.

This kids have so much creativity and enthusiasm I cannot help but love them all.



This class offers some of the best reminders of why I became a teacher.
