On Thursday, October 8th, the U.S, Senate passed a resolution declaring October 20th as the National Day on Writing. Polk Street School students, staff, and parents joined together for Parade of Voices: A Writing Celebration.
There were two assemblies with students sharing various forms of writing (cards, poems, lists, letters, songs, descriptive writing, personal narrative, persuasive writing, etc.) Keep your eyes and ears peeled—ideas and inspiration for writing are lurking everywhere!
In the words of Carol Burnett, a famous comedian, “Words, once they are printed have a life of their own.” The students did a fabulous job sharing their written pieces as they came to life!
