We'll be Back
Olivia Titus, 11
We’re all gone
No one we can see
Days filled with yawns
Don’t talk to me
The calls don’t work
Families can’t agree
We’re going berserk
Everyone can see
Everything’s cancelled
All bored at home
Just some examples
But we’re not alone
And we’ll be back
Giving elbow bumps
Wearing our masks
This virus we’ll trump
And we’ll be ...
Write about what it would be like to attend your rival school or play on your rival sports team. What would your thoughts be on the school you attend now? How is your view on your current school/sports team altered when looking through the eyes of another?
Thank You Doctors
Arshia Ramesh, 10
I’ve been watching you for some time,
I can’t imagine what you do every day.
Crashing waves and burning skies,
You seem calm during this hard time.
People are sick and gonna die,
But you save them with your diamond mind.
You’ve been taking double shifts to make us feel alright,
Thank you for being a supporter in this hard time.
Write a story in a single word.
Mad World 2020
Emma Hoff, 8
Locked
In your own head,
In fear
That the grass will
Turn different
The minute
You open the
Door.
That
Flickering lights
And a cloak
Will greet you
And everything
Will attack your mind
At once
When you see
What’s happening
To other people.
Select a sentence from your favorite novel. Tear out a page of your notebook or use an empty whiteboard to break down this sentence and find a deeper meaning, or possibly theorize what the author is trying to tell you (otherwise known as the theme). Then, write a story where you use this same theme.
A Different Kind of Chapter
Alice Myers, 10
Imagine life as a book. A really interesting book. There are those chapters that make you smile, but there are also chapters that make you cry. There are chapters that end on a cliffhanger, and chapters that don’t.
Write a story about about a unifying place. Maybe this is a coffee shop where a regular group of writers share their work, or a church where folks go to practice their religion. Simply explore how these people are unified, and why.
Coronavirus poem
Alisa Zou, 12
Out there,
Corona is probably having fun.
But,
We are struggling.
Corona,
Please stop attacking us.
Look,
I know what you are doing
(For a virus),
But
This is a very
Serious problem
That I want you to
Understand.
Listen,
We are
Dying.
Please go away.
You are too strong to fight.
