Nate was selected as one of ten kindergarteners to read two of his poems at the Barnes & Noble Poetry Jam. He did great--he was confident, clear and even got a chuckle or two!
His poems on display
"Ocean"
The ocean is not a potion
It's motion.
It's not lotion.
It does not have a shin.
It is not thin.
--By Nate, Kindergarten, Ms. Thelen
"Sea" (yes, there's a theme!)
Fish are swimmy.
Jellyfish are jiggly.
Sharks are chompy.
Sea horses are hangy.
Whales are blowing.
Dolphins are jumpy.
--By Nate
Arghhh...Blurry!
