Lansing Middle School Students Host Poetry Cafe for Parents, Community, and Staff
Lansing Middle School sixth graders finished their poetry unit on Thursday, March 21st, and Friday, March 22nd, by hosting a Poetry Cafe. Led by English Language Arts Teachers Ms. Rachel Szmed and Kathy Baughman, students have been studying different types of poetry and writing their own.
Parents, staff, and community members were invited to hear students read their poems and present posters they had created to showcase their favorite selections. Participants in the cafe enjoyed snacks and refreshments after the poetry readings, thanks to the generosity of parents for donations and to our Community Connect Volunteer, Ms. Kirsha Coates, for keeping things organized.
Great work, Ms. Baughman, Ms. Szmed, and all our sixth-graders!
