List poems

We'll start today by reading a poem by Walt Whitman, "I Hear America Singing"

Then it will be your turn, writing a poem entitled "I Hear My School Singing"

You'll brainstorm a list of the people you want to include in your poem. For each group / type of person you'll need an action word and at least one object related to their life.

When we start to write our version, you can use this template if you find that helpful. If not, try to stay roughly similar to Whitman's length and structure.
