Poetry and Tie-Dye

In the story, Also Known As Harper, the main character uses poetry as an outlet to express her inner thoughts, feelings, and to record her experiences. As a group we each took a turn reading aloud a selection of poetry, from the book, that stood out to us.

Here's one poem:
Words seems more important
When they come through a microphone.
It fancies them up somehow
As if they're not even
Yours anymore.
But I know what
Is really important
Is not where you're standing
When you say them.
It's the one special person
That's listening hard
To hear
What you have to say.
-Harper Lee

Next came some fun tie-dying using Sharpie markers!

Fabric + Sharpies + rubbing alcohol = totally cool tie dye!

Every design was super unique!

Smiles abound with friends!

Always a great time together!
