The Fiery Flames of Imagination...
burn bright in our classroom!

Today we started our creative writing adventure with a "warm up".  Students were asked to imagine themselves as glass blowers - in their minds they created a movie of themselves fashioning delicate works of art out of molten glass.  


An "M", my "M"

As I am creating blown glass I am pulling it into the shape of an "M".  It's cursive and aqua blue.  As I finish my "M" I see my reflection in it and I know it's for me.  I shall hang it up in my room over my bed, over my head.
Before I go to bed I will see that "M".  It's not just any "M" it's ME.

A unicorn 
Steam, red goo from a rusty sand box
Horn sparkly white,
Blue, soft-to-the-touch body
Sparkly, pink mane.
Purple tail.
Just groomed with a rainbow.
