This is why I love teaching... One of my student's made this in the class
that I am long term subbing for, and it turned out AWESOME! The text of the
poem is here, and the picture is how it turned out in the end...
I am from
A couch, a tv, a computer, a table, and from 46 chromosomes, and
I am from
A chair, a deck, a tree, a bush, a rock, and a car, and
I am from
Trash, garbage, cigarette, drugs, the ghetto, and conyack, and
I am from
Daddy, mommie, papa, my auntie booty, sister Dannie and meme, my uncle big,
norise, and cleo, and
I am from
What you do know will effect you later, you reap what you sew, and I will
slap the devil out of you, and
I am from
Peach cobbler, dressing, chicken, and pinto beans, and
I am from
Church, a car, the room, the ledge, goulburn, rosemary, the funeral home,
and the burial
