The eldest students were given an assignment that involved self-selecting three poets. After browsing through collections of poetry by Maya Angelou, Langston Hughes, Robert Frost, Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Edward Lear, Lewis Carroll and more, they had to pick one poem from their selected anthology. After copying one poem from the collection, they had to illustrate it in a medium of their choice. Then they had to research and write a paragraph about the poet including information about his/her family background, education and accomplishments. Next they were assigned to write a paragraph describing what it was about the poet and specific poem that appealed to them. Finally, and most challenging of all, they had to write a poem inspired by their poet!
