School year 2006-2007

Café Wilder Poetry

Our goal at Café Wilder is to create a fun, artistic environment for the kids to be able to perform a piece of poetry of their own creation, written by a classmate or a poem of a published poet.

Our objective is to encourage development of oral presentation skills, build self-confidence, and promote a love for poetry by exposing kids to many different types of poetry in a nurturing environment.

This event is open to all students at Wilder Elementary.  The parent/guardians need to approve the participation of their child and the poetry selection.  We strongly encourage the parents/guardians to attend…for their own enjoyment! 

During the school year we create a collection of the original poems and poems shared by visiting poets and ‘publish’ them in simple booklets that are given out to the participants at no cost to commemorate the event.

Café Wilder is a monthly activity, usually occurring during the first week of each month.  See the School Calendar for actual dates.

Musical Flowers

 

By Emily Beyer

 

Musical flowers in the air

Musical flowers everywhere!

Musical flowers dancing in the breeze,

Musical flowers dancing in the trees!

 

Every flower that I see,

Is wild and colorful just like me!

 

 

Cute Little Bunnies

 

By Jennifer Beyer

 

Cute little bunnies running in the grass

Munching, crunching on their way to class.

Hopping, hopping along the way,

They’ll be tired in one day.

A Su Doku puzzle expands your mind.

This new puzzle craze takes up my days,

It makes me smarter, I get more As!
